For the past seven years we have been repeatedly told that the London Olympics will highlight all that is good about London and the United Kingdom.
We were informed when we decided to bid for these Olympics that the Olympic committee would be hosts to over 25,000 VIPs.
We have to accommodate all these people at our expense. We are also providing these people with private transport - i.e. cars.
If the Olympic committee want us to believe that they have the United Kingdom's interest at heart, could someone explain why we have purchased 2000 BMW Cars? What was wrong with purchasing British-made cars such as Ford, Vauxhall or better still Jaguars?
Unfortunately the people who sit on these committees do not understand that thousands of jobs are being lost here in Britain and this is made worse when the opportunities to buy British falls on deaf ears or people who simply do not care about the working class.
