Die VF Plus het vanoggend ‘n versoekskrif aan die Britse hoë kommissaris in Pretoria oorhandig waarin gevra word dat die Britse hoë kommissaris in Suid-Afrika, die Britse rugby-unies en die Britse regering kennis neem van die ANC-regering se inmenging in sport in Suid-Afrika.
Hier volg die volledige skrywe:
POLITICAL INTERFERENCE IN THE ELECTION OF THE SPRINGBOK RUGBY TEAM FOR THE RUGBY WORLD-CUP OF 2015
The above matter refers.
We hereby kindly request that you take note of the possible political interference with regards to the selection of the South African Springbok rugby team for the Rugby World Cup of 2015 to be held in England.
We kindly request that the British High Commissioner, the British Rugby-Unions and the British Government take note of the following:
We therefore kindly bring the abovementioned under your urgent attention and urge you to take this matter up with the South African government and the South African Rugby Union to ensure that political interference is kept out of rugby.
In the end we still support the current Springbok rugby team and wish to see it participate in the tournament without any further political interference to the best of the teams’ abilities. We would ideally like to see pressure being applied on the South African government to cease any future political interference in rugby and kindly request your assistance herein.
