Democracy and Banana Republics

On the subject of democracy it is worth glancing, fleetingly, at that wealthy banana dictatorship known as “FIFA”.
It should come as no surprise at all that Mr. Sepp Blatter, the man upon whose watch the name and reputation of international football has been dragged through the gutter of corruption has been re-elected unopposed as the head of this rotten state. Why on earth any nation with any self-respect left at all continues to maintain Membership of this thoroughly discredited organisation is beyond me. And to make matters worse, while two hundred and fifty thousand British taxpayers, including the families of some competitors, cannot get tickets for the 2012 Olympic Games , because Fatty Blubber is a member of the IOC, FIFA`s freeloading dodgy junketeers are to be given prominent seats! Their governance and conduct makes even the European Union look honest.
