Harrowing account of the plight of immigrant workers constructing the stadia in Qatar, in today's ST. To the Qatar authorities and FIFA - I spit in your general direction. Diabolical.

I see the Beckhams signed a £150,000,000 deal to promote the tournament. Still that's understandable, they must need the dosh.

The AI report I assume. The ST's was yesterday.
Both are rather condemning wouldn't you say?
