INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL MATCHES IN ZIMBABWE

Tabled by Sir James Duddridge (Conservative) 40 signatures

The motion

That this House notes that the host government for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa intends to schedule international `friendly' games in Zimbabwe; believes that the rule of Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe is tyrannical; is concerned that international sporting fixtures in Zimbabwe are taken by Robert Mugabe as an endorsement of his regime; and therefore urges the Government to insist that no international football matches take place in Zimbabwe while the Mugabe regime is in power.
