The England national football team to boycott the FIFA 2022 World Cup if staged in Qatar.
This is a petition to the government to have the England national football team boycott the FIFA World Cup competition in Qatar, 2022, in protest of the ongoing abuse of human rights to the migrant workers in Qatar.
Over 1200 workers are reported to have died thus far whilst working on construction projects related to the 2022 World Cup, and it is estimated that over 4000 will die by the event itself in 2022.
England's willing participation in the 2022 World Cup will make all involved with the England football team complicit in the human rights violations that are happening.
All signatories of this petition are opposed to this complicity.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
