It's 90% and with very good reason. Over run, over taxed and over governed.

Yup, just about sums it up.

Well the 7/7 bombings happened the day after London were awarded the Olympics..

And the day after that people were queuing up for the same numbered bus and complaining that it was late

Wow, you really are miserable aren't you. This is the one major issue i have about the UK now. It's at least 50% populated by miserable moaning people.

Yes, I'm extremely negative and judgemental about the crap Olympics I've been forced to spend £700 buying.
It's not even as if I can pop down as see it, as first I'm charged _extra_ for that, then even if I wanted to it's all locked in by some TicketTout scam involving buying the bloody tickets about a year in advance.

I'm glad you like forcible taxation to pay for a bunch of subsidized degenerate freeloaders lope around a track for two weeks involving the st IOC and the worst way of wasting people's tax money since Tax Credits. Do not expect most people in the UK to however.

One thing is paying for something I want, being forced to pay for something I object to, costing £12bn in the middle of a deep recession is fking inexcusable and I treat this cavalier wastage of my money with extreme prejudice. Perhaps it's lucky I don't ever meet the organisers as I'd soon find a few javelins and a shot putt to shove up their arse. If Coe is so keen on this stupid white elephant he can spend his own bloody money on it, not mine.
