Diving is going to get worse and worse as long as the people in charge of the game like Platini refuse to support video replays and the use of extensive 'after the incident' reviews aimed at clamping down on the cheats. This won't happen though because Platini is a spastic who thinks that the job of UEFA president is to whine about the Premiership as much as possible.
You say that you're happy that English football has less diving in it than on the continent but I reckon the only way we could get UEFA to act against it would be if it was the reverse. Until the Premiership leads the way in diving and all our teams achieve European success in the manner of Mourinho's Porto then nothing will happen, however on the day Platini sees a Premiership team knock out a continental side by virtue of conning the ref we'll see a sudden reversal of policy with teams containing players who dive facing substantial fines and bans from European competition.
