Rejected

What the petition asks
Following the new revelations that Qatar secretly offered bribe to FIFA days before it decided that the 2022 World Cup would be held in Qatar. MPs should authorise the FA to form an alliance with its counterparts to boycot 2022 WC regardless of the consequences that could see them banned from FIFA.
Qatar secretly slammed down an extraordinary four hundred million dollar offer in television cash on Fifa’s table … just 21 days before the sports body gave the Gulf state its ultimate prize: the 2022 World Cup
