It's was clear from the offset they weren't bothered by the Paralympics part. They need to split out the Paralympics from the Olympics at this rate or make sure the IOC chooses nations capable of providing the funding, facilities and audience for the Paralympics when selecting who gets the Olympics.
Probably a pipe dream but I would have liked to see the UK step in and host them consecutively when the situation became clear in Brazil. We probably don't have the facilities there anymore though.
