Business question from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 June 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
I am sure that the Leader of the House will want to join me in condemning the sickening hate mail received by Scottish tennis ace Andy Murray simply because he favours one football team over another. Do we not need a statement to remind fans, the media, commentators and pundits that football is just a game? Good-natured rivalry is what makes it so special around the world, so should we not make an appeal to stop all the cajoling and browbeating about who should support whom?
