This petition was submitted during the 2010 to 2015 Parliament
Rejected petition England to host 2018 World Cup
Rejected on
I move that the Uk government demand the EU and US ban all advertising and sponsorship of all FIFA and UEFA tournaments by Western companies unless Russia is stripped of the rights to hold the 2018 World Cup due to it's attempted annexation of Crimea. Furthermore, I move that Russia and all it's clubs are barred from all European competition whilst it threatens European peace and stability.
Finally, we, the home nations should prepare to accept the tournament in our 4 countries if Russia fails to comply.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
This is a matter for FIFA.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
