Or Yorkshire! They should have had the Olympics nationwide, using the
facilities already existing.
My main thoughts are for the small business thrown off their
premises in East London, just for a silly sport event. It's an outrage.

We shouldn't have had the olympics at all.

Nothing wrong with the olympics in principle, its the whole corporate
gig that's the problem
