Brit, if the workers stop coming, that will end these practices.
But the other possibility is if others involved in the projects boycott them too.
I've mentioned previously the boycott that artists imposed on the Guggenheim project in Abu Dhabi, which eventually forced the developers (the UAE government) to appoint a monitor to ensure workers' rights were protected.
So Qatar can either wait for the laborers to stop coming, or they can be surprised when construction companies, suppliers, and football team officials, players, referees and others associated with 2022, announce a boycott.
Or we could all just pretend that everything is fine.
