The Great Olympic Robbery

Like the Euro fighter, the Channel tunnel, the Concord,and numerous government financial disasters, the original estimate for the Olympic Games and the year later revised one, is even more proof that this government's veracity is more mendacity. I wont even mention the activities of Ken Livingston; they are just too numerous.

No one economically intelligent could have made such enormous errors and one has to conclude that the falsification of the original spurious costings received the hush hush approval of the political subculture that Mr Blair incubates to the detriment of our New Labour society.

We were told that the whole of the UK was ecstatic when the
UK won the bid to put on the games in London. If this is correct, then every Council Tax payer in the United Kingdom ( England , Wales Scotland and Northern Ireland ) should be paying a small Olympic amount extra in their council tax. There is no logical reason why London Council Tax payers should be the only people helping to foot the bill. By sharing the financial obligation with all the "euphoric residents" of the UK, the financial burden would be considerably reduce. Everyone should be made to put in their pennies .

Few Londoners will be able to afford the tickets and although we Londoners will be paying in our Council taxes for many years, as yet no one has offered the tax paying Londoners free tickets or even greatly reduced concessionary tickets.Many of us will be dead or too frail to join the scrum to even get there.

A fifth year school pupil with GCSE in economics would be able to
calculate sums better than the economic fantasists of Gordon Brown and associates who could alleviate the situation considerably by releasing the Olympic Games from legal VAT obligation. Labour passes unlimited Legislation according to the whims of the esoteric Blairites so why not reduce the tax payers burden by exempting them from VAT. It is bad enough paying for Blair's wars without making things worse by suffering Olympic poverty for the next twenty or thirty years. Blair and associates wont suffer but the general public will which wont worry Blair very much with his enormous pension provided by the taxpayer.
