We were told that having the Olympics in London would give us a "legacy" that would encourage people into sport.
We now hear that funds that should be going to local sporting facilities are being diverted to build parts of the Olympic complex !!! The money being put into this latest white elephant could be spent on health and education but is, instead being spent on boosting the fragile egos of has been sports stars and politicians.
Taking money away from local sports facilities to build five star accomodation for visiting athletes is going to leave a "legacy" alright !!!
A bunch of couch potatoes watching drugged up prima donnas performing amazing feats on the telly while they sit and watch, unable to "do" because local facilities have been run down.
