Quote: Aaron @ August 10 2008, 2:48 PM BSTThe majority of it will be held in East London, which is at present quite the shite hole. The Olympics are basically a way to get cash to regenerate the area.
The main stadium is still looking for a new owner post-games, but it is expected to be a local football team. For some reason they will actually decrease capacity, by something like 20,000 IIRC.
Are you Londoners looking forward to it?

Hey, the sea isn't only 1 mile long, silly!

I think it'll be good after the Olympics. Better facilities, nice buildings in East London (hopefully), and some better transport links.
But the actual event will be a bit of a pain in the arse.
Still. Boris might be on telly a bit.

This Boris, is he the winner of "Britain's most favourite Big Brother housemate", or something?
Now that would be a good BB.
He's a politician!

Aah, is it Boris F. Johnson, perchance?

Funny on HIFNFY as a lovely baffoon, but not funny as Major of our capital. Sorry, but the man's an idiot. How does that make us look to the rest of the world? I can't believe Londoners voted for him. Was Livingston really that bad?

Yeah! Boris Falulah Johnson.

Has London fallen to the ground? Has he done ANYTHING terrible yet?
Nope.
He's just fine as Mayor.

I don't live in London but him being Major doesn't look good for our image (from here anyways).
Aw.
He's been up all night taking care of bloody London again!

Yes, tut tut, that pesky London.
