I hope too. Gicen the natural conditions there (subject to high tides and cyclones) you need to invest in infrastructure.

My personal view at the time was to let Paris win it and have all the costs involved and the security nightmare, and those who wanted to see it could get on a train. I still think it was a huge mistake. We are pissing away Billions that could be spent on funding hospitals, schools and the Armed Forces.

No - the whole cost should go on Londoners Council Tax! Have you guessed I don't live in London? :laugh:

The whole bill should be made out to the last Communist Labour Cabinet.

I much prefer to see a poor country, where the population love the sport, get the WC. It is much better than the Football equivalent where the richest country get its. Anyone with half a brain can see that the Qatar 22 will be a complete farce.

The last Labour Cabinet. Hm. The last Labour Cabinet. No, don't think we've had one of them in a loooong while. Labour politicians are as right wing as the Tories! :laugh:

50 Degree heat, no hooch, tiny country with football grounds going to be only a few miles away from each other and not enough police to stop the fighting between supporters. Hmmmm.

And the right to complain that the west is decadent and they want to change it into a paradise like the one they struggled to leave.

Ah ok. And how did it get there? Is that like a "reserve for special events"? His personal savings? (probably not...)

Is the 50 Degree heat the winter temperatures? As I read once that they were thinking of moving it to the winter for Qatar because of the summer heat.

You can say it as an investment or bet in sports. They must be having higher expectations from game, sponsors and i don't know what all earnings.
