Okay, can someone please explain to me why I should care about this ESL thing? As far as I can tell it's a way for top teams to make more money, yes? Which is, I guess, maybe bad for balance or mobility in the rankings or whatever. So definitely something for football fans to have an opinion about.

My question is why government officials need to have an opinion about it? It seems to be exciting a lot of government discussion which is frankly baffling to me. Anyone want to help me out here?
