the uk lobbied long and hard for the london olympic games.
it seemed that the best part of winning it was taking it away from paris. what bugged me as a londoner was that nobody ever mentioned the "c" word..........................the cost.
now we are expected to fund it and nly now is the truth coming out.
how is it that the media completely ignored the question in the build-up to the london bid?

I loved the way in which the British media caught the French prime minister slaging of the English, pure genius to use it to discredit the french bid!!
