That this House regrets the decision to refuse a work permit for the purposes of joining Manchester City to Iraqi footballer Nashat Akram, who played a major role in the Iraqi national squad's victory in the recent Asia Cup, on the grounds that, at 72nd in the international rankings, Iraq falls just outside the basket of 70 teams from which such candidates can be considered; notes that football is a great unifying force in Iraq and that Nashat's transfer to a major league team would also do much to boost the sport in Iraq; further notes the judgement of Manchester City Manager Sven-G??ran Eriksson, that Nashat is a very good footballer with an excellent pedigree; and urges that consideration be given to the Iraqi Government request to revise this decision in the light of the fact that Iraqi football needs nurturing after several decades of fascist-type rule by the Ba'athists which isolated and hampered Iraqi football.

That this House congratulates the USA football team on their impressive victory that took them into the quarter finals of the World Cup; recognises that this success has been built on a commitment to team work and fair play, strictly pursued within agreed international rules; and invites President Bush to adopt the same approach to US foreign policy by pledging that the only strike force the United States would send to Iraq would be the football team, the only acceptable shoot-out would be a penalty shoot-out, and the World Cup principle of inclusive internationalism would override any temptation to military unilateralism.
