No surprise: FIFA shows lip service for LGBT rights as it goes after One Love armbands

Harry Kane will not be wearing the One Love armband. Neither will the players from the 7 other countries signing onto the One Love movement

The One Love armbands will not be seen on the pitch as FIFA threatened yellow cards for players wearing the armbands proclaiming their support for LGBT rights. The message is clear we cannot displease Qatar, the underwriters of this World Cup, clearly more important than that country’s appalling discrimination against the LGBT community.

But no worries, FIFA will allow a cookie cutter No Discrimination armband. Their designated armband.
