The captain of England says she doesn't want to watch the World Cup.

The Middle East nation hosted in 2010.

Human rights and treatment of migrant workers have been criticized by it.

The shadow over the top of the show is a shame, as it should be the greatest show on earth.

I don't know how we ended up here.

One of the things that brought people together was watching the World Cup.

'I want to use my voice'

After a two-year investigation, it was found that there were no bribes paid to get the World Cup.

The decision to award the World Cup to Saudi Arabia was a mistake, according to Sepp Blatter.

According to the Guardian, 6,500 migrant workers from India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have died since it won the right to host the World Cup in 2020.

The total is not true because not all of the deaths were related to the World Cup.

According to a recent report by Human Rights Watch, members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Trans community were mistreated by the country's security services.

Everyone is welcome to visit the country to watch the football, and no one will be discriminated against.

Some players at the World Cup plan to stage peaceful protests. The captains of European teams will wear 'One Love' armbands during the tournament.

The Lionesses captain told the radio station that she wanted to use her voice.

There are times when it is necessary to make sure that this doesn't happen again and be a force for change.

I'll support the boys but I'm not interested in it as a fan.

Christiansen pulls out of media duties over Qatar

Christiansen withdrew from her media duties.

Christiansen was supposed to work three matches for radio.

She pulled out because she didn't want to be involved in the tournament.

"In the build-up to the tournament, there's been a lot said, I've read a lot, and I've made the decision myself not to be involved in the tournament in any capacity."

They don't ally with things we endorse in the Women's Super League, and I'm not comfortable with the conditions inQatar. I'm not comfortable endorsing or broadcasting on the tournament because of the Rainbow Laces flag on my arm.

I'm not comfortable broadcasting on an event that has a lot of poor examples of human rights, laws and practices over in Qatar, so it's been an easy decision.

I'm happy that I made the decision.

We fully understand and respect his decision. In the new year, we will be working with her on our coverage of the English premier league.
