Why don't you actually do some damned research?

Or is it just that you can't put your preconceived prejudices to one side.

Oh and remember these games were sought and gained under a Labour Government and completed by a Coalition government so scoring political points is pretty meaningless.
your the one who has just brought politics into it. I just said I feel its a waste of money.

The problem with all that you listed is its all spent in london. What has been built and so forth will not be permanent, and there is football clubs currently fighting over the olympic stadium.
