unfortunately, FIFA is a one member one-vote organization so all the micro-nations of the world have the same voting power as EUFA's footballing giants - annd corrupt leaders who want the money/perks of membership and the bribe promised by Infantino to vote or his changes

yes - misses the detail that if Britain has become Mediterranean, the Med has become the Sahara

just read the wiki entry - what a fabulous initiative
