And now here's my real answer - it's crap, looks like crap and is a waste of money!  It's providing work, yes, but for a London company - none of this benefitting the rest of the country. |
So the Olympics won't benefit the rest of the UK?
Is the football going to be played at Old Trafford? (answer - yes)
Are athletes and spectators all going to stay in London?(answer - no. They will stay in various parts of the UK, athletes will need facilities to train on and get used to English weather', spectators and tourists will not all be able to stay in London. I am sure many will enter the country through Manchester or Liverpool and stay in the North West and travel down to see the games)
Will all the jobs go to people in London? (answer - no - A North West firm has won the tender to supply all the toilet roll for the Olympics, they will need extra staff to meet the demand.)
Is the logo any good?(answer - in my opinion its not that good, bbc website has some very good alternatives sent in by members of the public which I think are better)
