They've made a big deal out of all their successes. They didn't care less what the cost was going to be to other people. They knew they were going to screw you in order to get what they wanted and that's just what they've done. Perhaps the rest of the world that gave us the Olympics needs a little reminder that you ended up paying for the present they gave London.<br /><br />Did you see the inspired little piece about the spirit of the legacy by Ian Sinclair on Newsnight last night?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-589579548155673009.post-78299200535019831242011-07-26T23:58:23.105+01:002011-07-26T23:58:23.105+01:00Sona, when are you going to manage to get Meg Hill...Sona, when are you going to manage to get Meg Hillier to do anything for you?
