In what way is allowing other countries other than the UK buy tickets corrupt?

It is a global event and the availability of tickets in Europe has never been a secret.

I was coming from the angle of the comparison between the UK's, and other countries' website's ticketing allowencing mechanisms (and not allocation of tickets for other countries)....

I mean, WHY is it the case that the UK has a sh1te alloction rule, where "hardly any member of the public can get hold 'em", if applied for on the UK website?

How come it's seemingly much easy(er) to obtain tickets from other Euro countries' websites, as reported in the media of late? What's going on here?

The two scenarios are at odds with each other.

To compensate for Brits' misery re the tickets, they should make the wimmins volleyball players wear thongs and tiny bras and stuff.

You would not be able to stand up if someone wanted to get past you to their seat!
