Findlay wants Qatar friendly scrapped
MSP calls on Holyrood to cancel game
LABOUR MSP Neil Findlay tabled a motion to the Scottish government yesterday to get the upcoming friendly between Scotland and Qatar called off.
Qatar played Northern Ireland on Sunday evening, with a backdrop of “how much did you pay for the Fifa World Cup?” chants throughout the match.
And Findlay believes that due to the continued exploitation of migrant workers in the the Gulf nation which has led to hundreds of deaths while building infrastructure for the 2022 World Cup, the game should be called off.
