Rejected petition The home nations to withdraw from FIFA due to institutionalized corruption within world football's governing body.

More details

The home nations should withdraw from FIFA immediately due to institutionalized corruption within world football's governing body, and their flagrant disregard for human rights, specifically the exploitation of migrant workers in Qatar. FIFA has shown no evidence that it has the ability to reform, and continued membership will only add credibility to an inept and corrupt organization, accelerate the decline of the international game, and tarnish by association the good name of the football authorities in the UK.
