Cricketer leaves no stone unturned at Derbyshire after Ashes snub
Communist Party of Britain demands apology from FA chief Glenn
Football Association chief Martin Glenn
COMMUNIST Party of Britain general secretary Rob Griffiths slammed Football Association chief Martin Glenn today for his offensive comments towards communists.
In trying to justify the FA’s decision to charge Man City boss Pep Guardiola over the ribbon, which he wears in support of two imprisoned leaders of the Catalan independence movement, Glenn equated the Star of David with a swastika.
However, while Glenn was forced to apologise for his offensive comment to Jewish people, he failed to apologise to communists after also comparing the swastika to the hammer and sickle.
