    Most of them fear deportation because they have already committed crimes with a bigger/worse sentence in their own country.

    This is standard appeal excuse to avoid deportation, you can't send him home he would be executed.

    The 24 teams at the Euros and their attitudes to taking a knee gesture

    Supporting the knee

    Austria
    Belgium
    England
    Finland
    France
    Wales


    Not Supporting.

    Denmark

    Players defied opposition at home to take the knee against Belgium and England last autumn. “We all support the fight against all forms of racism,” said captain Christian Eriksen. But in March, the Danish FA joined with Holland in the “Football supports CHANGE” initiative, protesting the treatment of migrant workers in Qatar ahead of the 2022 World Cup.

    Germany

    Bundesliga players led the way in taking the knee in support of BLM last summer but, like other European countries, have opted for a broader message in support of human rights in more recent months. German players did not take a knee in last week’s warm-up game.

    Holland

    Many high-profile players have been vocal in their BLM support, but they did not take the knee against Georgia on Sunday. Earlier this season, the Dutch joined the Germans and Danes in backing the human rights initiative, targeting Qatar.

    Croatia
    Czech Republic
    Hungary
    Poland

    Russia
    Slovakia
    Spain
    Ukraine

    Italy

    North Macedonia
    Portugal

    Sweden

    Switzerland
    Turkey
    Scotland
    Brentford

    The thing with "taking the knee" is that it was and should have only ever been a short highly visible statement that people would see and remember, now it's just 10 seconds to kick off.
    Sky have totally lost the feel of supporters and viewers by still having the BLM logo in the top corner of the show, not really their fault because the message was strong and just at the time.
    Unfortunately the idea/movement was taken over by self agrandising, loud mouthed anarchists who feathered their own nests first.

    'Dominic Cummings has failed to provide evidence to substantiate his allegations that senior cabinet ministers mishandled the coronavirus pandemic that he had promised to provide to a parliamentary inquiry'


    Because he's a liar.

    An Oxford University students' group has voted to take down a portrait of the Queen from its common room.

    It reportedly made the decision because some students believe she represents "recent colonial history"

    Shows what the twats know about history. The vast majority of former British colonies became independent during her reign, she even turned up to the ceremonies ffs.

    "We are taking down the portrait of the Queen because of history"
    "you got the history wrong"
    "well, we don't like that version of history so we are making up our own instead"
    "you are all c.unts"
