English PM Starmer says new regulator will stay within UEFA rules on political interference
September 18 – British prime minister Sir Keir Starmer has waded into the debate over an independent football regulator by insisting the idea will not fall foul of UEFA despite a warning it could breach strict rules on government interference in the game.
In a leaked letter picked this week, UEFA made it clear that any regulator for the English game on clubs’ financial sustainability should not impact on sporting outcomes.
Sir Keir said he was sure ministers would “find a way through” in talks with UEFA after it voiced concerns that the proposals could threaten the autonomy of sport.
