Currupt Olympic Gravy Train
Call me naive, but shouldn't the olympics just be sporting events held at relevant venues (e.g. sports stadiums, football pitches) just like normal events? How come it costs £10Bb?
Er, because the IOC make ridiculous demands for no known reason other than they can get away with it: the UK government is using taxpayers money to provide them with 40,000 (!) hotels rooms for free, as well as 500 limousines. And that's just the start.

I hope it dies on it's arse.
