University Research on the Qatar World Cup 06:53 - Jan 2 with 797 views | theacademic1 | Dear All, Happy new year. I am involved in a university research project looking at the recent World Cup in Qatar and whether this was a highly unusual tournament, unlikely to be repeated, or the start of future World Cups loaded with political and social issues. To answer this, we have created a short survey that I hope you can spare a few minutes to share your views: https://teesside.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/the-qatar-world-cup-and-the-new-politics-of Thanks in advance for your time. |  | | |  |

and russia in 2018 was hardly uncontroversial. crimea, racism, human rights abuses, lgbt discrimination, international thuggery and corruption. |  |
| And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show |
