UEFA AND JOST MOURINHO (No. 2)

Early day motion 1001, tabled 23 March 2005 by Lord Stratford (Labour). Signed by 8 members.

That this House is appalled by the defamatory statements about Mr JosT Mourinho issued by William Gaillard, the UEFA Director of Communications; is astonished that Mr Gaillard should be allowed to abuse his position with total impunity; believes that any investigation by UEFA or its nominees into last month's events at the Nou Camp cannot now be fair or impartial; and calls upon the Football Association to make the strongest possible protest to UEFA, which seems to be run by officials who are both soft on racism and long on anti-English sentiment.

Signatures by party: Labour 6, Conservative 1, Liberal Democrat 1.
