Sport is like Marmite,love it or hate it.
Dont personally think it will do anything for this country,the only ones that will benefit are the already rich.
Ordinary people are losing money hand over foot,Businesses having to close down because staff and goods cant get to them,Taxi drivers are actually taking time off for the Olympic period.(Appropriate phrase considering the bloody shower that are running it...)
Anyone who works or has business in london area is suffering.
This is without the stress and inconvenience that the road closures and olympic lanes have caused to commuters etc.Its making peoples journeys 4 times as long as usual.
Olympics in UK fine,but what a stupid place to have it.
They should have found somewhere central uk near an airport away from a large city to do it.
We will be paying bill for this for 20-30 years,and will never see any benifit to the general population from it.
