One year ago, I joined 130+ female footballers calling on FIFA to drop Aramco. 365 days later — still no response.
Big oil and human rights abuses are not the future our game deserves.

Het blokkeren van effectieve sancties door o.a. VVD, CU en NSC maakt ons medeplichtig aan genocide. Nederland ondermijnt de internationale rechtsorde.

The Saudi 2034 bid book evaluation is no serious evaluation.
FAs should not accept this.

Saudi 2034 would be one of the most polluting events ever, with 11 new stadiums and lots of air travel. And a PR event for the world's worst climate action blocker.

What does the evaluation say?

Fantastic work by these players. Hope the FAs of the countries they represent will also stand up for them, human rights and a safe planet. @tesselmiddag.bsky.social
