Rejected petition Boycott the Qatar 2022 World Cup

Instruct the FA to boycott the 2022 FIFA world cup.

Qatar has an unacceptable record on human rights, womens rights and to send an English Football team there would be to accept this barbaric regime. Sporting boycotts work, sporting boycotts matter. Lets show we have morals that outweigh financial gain, for the good of our daughters.
