He has been a vocal supporter of left-wing politics and has been outspoken on plenty of political issues in recent years. Well done hosting went out of his comfort zone &amp; took a few blows but was still standing by the end!Well done hosting went out of his comfort zone &amp; took a few blows but was still standing by the end!

However, the former full-back will be working for Qatari company beIN Sports at the FIFA World Cup, despite the nation's abhorrent human rights record. The panel were discussing the issue of LGBTQ+ supporters in Qatar, at which point Hislop took a dig at Neville.

The pundit asked Hislop: 'Is it coming home?' To which the regular panelist replied (as per ): "What, your reputation?" Neville was then pressed on why he would be taking the money from Qatar at the FIFA World Cup, to which he replied: "Yeah, I'm commentating. Well, you've got a choice, haven't you?

My view always has been that you either highlight the issues and challenges in these countries and speak about them, or you basically don't say anything and stay back home and don't go. And I think we should challenge them." Hislop was unimpressed with the defense as he responded (per ): "The other option is you stay at home and highlight the abuses. You don't have to take the Qataris' money.

The pundit defended his stance by telling : "We (can) say we're never going to let them play sport, we're never going to have a World Cup there, we're never going to allow them to compete against us because they don't have what would be as progressive rights as they should have." He added: "That is the reality of where I'm at with it. There's no-one that I think wants workers' rights to be better than me, there's no-one who wants women's rights, equality or diversity more than me, I absolutely believe in it." Neville claimed that he will continue to highlight the issues even while working at the FIFA World Cup, as he said: "When I highlight these issues, I can do so from a position whereby if I am covering eight games on beIN in a World Cup, and those issues come up or there's an incident outside the stadium, I will highlight them.
