I said the levels of hate and bitternes in the country are out of control - fueled by divisive right wing politicians.
You misread my post and keep repeating that society is out of control.
If you want me to engage at least read my post correctly.
Ah. Thank you for clarifying. In that case, I don’t think what we see in England, on a societal level, or politically, is all that much different from what we see in any other comparative (Western) nation. Elsewhere, it’s often a great deal worse. It certainly isn’t a uniquely English phenomenon. Things are not ideal, are they ever, anywhere? Yet describing the levels of hate and bitterness in our country as out of control, I feel is overstating things somewhat. But we’ll agree to disagree on that.
Within the confines of football, and it is football, is where I do feel we massively let ourselves down. I don’t like to see the anthems of other international sides booed, or seeing our town squares getting trashed, before or after big games. And reports, albeit very isolated, of fans (like the Danish family) from other nations getting harassed are disgraceful and embarrassing. All of it is scummy behaviour and there is no excuse for it.
Given those recent antics if I were UEFA/FIFA, I wouldn’t be looking at England with any particular fondness at the moment, yet, they’re both money hungry organisations and England is one of a select few countries that has the infrastructure and importantly, can guarantee packed out venues and stadia, ensuring, if nothing else, economic success for any prospective tournament.
