Investigate The BBC & FIFA
Sign Now
We, the Undersigned, wish to petition Her Majesty's Government to carry out an investigation into the British Broadcasting Corporation's (hereafter named the BBC) 'Panorama' programme and its effect on today's (Thursday 2nd December) announcement by FIFA that Russia has been chosen to host the 2018 FIFA Football World Cup.
We firmly believe that the BBC has broken its own code on impartiality, and that senior programme editors who made the decision to broadcast the aforementioned programme, knowing that it could do serious damage to the England team bid, are forced to give a public apology and/or resign from their posts with immediate effect.
Also, we also want an investigation into the way Lord David Triesman conducted himself whilst a member of the England bidding team, and to root out any and all saboteurs even if it means prosecution for them.
If possible, we would also like Her Majesty's Government to write to FIFA to express their dismay at the running of their organisation and call on fellow governments to issue an inquiry as to the democratic running of the FIFA organisation and call for the sacking of the current FIFA board which is clearly not fit for purpose.
We strongly and firmly believe that this investigation is the only way to protect democracy and fair-play in our national game, and that parties from both sides need to be held to account for their actions.
Football, as Brian Clough once remarked, is a beautiful game and us fans of the beautiful game must ensure that it is not turned ugly by neither meddling apparatchiks at the BBC nor an incompetent FIFA Board of Directors.
