About this deal

A Football Association Council member has quit amid the storm around him after he proclaimed that “ Adolf Hitler would be proud of Benjamin Netanyahu”. It is with great sadness that I inform you of my decision to resign as a member of The FA Council with immediate effect,” Haq wrote. “I have determined this is the best course of action for the Football Association and myself. I think it's very important to build the momentum again and start winning football games. I think we are in a good shape. We have to play our football, to give everything and after we will see what the result will be." X’s point of view has always been very clear that discrimination by everyone should STOP across the board – I think that’s something we can and should all agree on. When it comes to this platform – X has also been extremely clear about our efforts to combat antisemitism and discrimination. There’s no place for it anywhere in the world – it’s ugly and wrong. Full stop,” she wrote.

An FA spokesperson said: “We accept Wasim Haq’s resignation from his role on the FA Council with immediate effect. We also reiterate our stance that football is about unity and not division, and we welcome his apology to the Jewish community for the unacceptable comments that he made on social media.” BBC Radio Sussex's Johnny Cantor added:"If Albion go out there and strut their stuff, they have the quality to beat them. Forest quietened them down last season - this time Albion have got to go for the jugular. The comment came just weeks after the FA sparked anger among other members of its own council after a perceived failure to condemn historic tweets on boycotting Israel by Inclusion Advisory Board chair Deji Davies.Wasim Haq, who had already been suspended by the FA and the Lawn Tennis Association, apologised again for the social media post, adding that he was “bereft of energy and hope”. In a replacement post, he said: "My tweet was directly in relation to comparing two individuals who in my eyes have caused contemporary and historical irreparable harm to victimised communities on both sides of this tragic conflict. Musk’s racial politics have been trending in this direction for months. In October, he wrote in response to a tweet mourning the melting down of a statue of the Confederate general Robert E Lee: “They absolutely want your extinction.” Replying to a tweet from @libsoftiktok, who he restored to X, which read: “Racism against white people is the only kind of discrimination that’s allowed,” Musk wrote last week: “It’s messed up and needs to stop.” Liverpool have just announced they plan to partially open the upper tier of the Anfield Road stand for their home game against Manchester United on 17 December, pending a safety certificate.

Media watchdog Media Matters said it found that corporate advertisements by companies including IBM, Apple, Oracle and Comcast’s Xfinity were being placed alongside antisemitic content. A tweet posted by @breakingbaht on Wednesday night read: “Jewish communties [sic] have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.” The body told Sky News: "Following the conclusion of England Golf's internal investigation of a comment made by Wasim Haq on social media, Wasim has now resigned from his position as a Director of England Golf. We would like to thank Wasim for his service since joining the board of England Golf." The FA said it had launched an investigation and suspended Mr Haq from his role as BAME football communities representative in the interim.Late on Thursday, X’s CEO, Linda Yaccarino, posted a tweet that seemed to respond to the controversy and rebuke antisemitism, though she did not invoke her boss by name. On Thursday morning, Musk continued on the same tear about the white race. He approved of a tweet reading: “Everyone is allowed to be proud of their race, except for white people, because we’ve been brainwashed into believing that our history was some how ‘worse’ than other races. This false narrative must die.” He wrote that he had previously “tried to do my best to ensure people do not have to go through what I experienced 1000s of times in my own life” and “to be a leader in finding solutions to systemic discrimination”.
