And as for the tax thing... well I can't see the North benefitting from the Olympics in 2012.... IMHO... even so it's stupid to spend X-amount of millions on a building that will get knocked down when the economy is going down hill faster than a winter olympian up everest, on a bob-sled with terminal Diarrhea.
I agree with your daughter Sweetpea.
You know what - The members of the 2012 appreciation society want this so badly, why not have them pay for it? We've not asked for the olympics, only a very small minority pressure group have done so...
