Not a word at the outset, in fact kept under wraps til now, the chaos the Olympics will cause to the folk who live nearby, with parking their cars, the movement around where they live and work, the getting to and fro, the do's and donts in their daily routine, one guy on telly will be housebound for the duration, a multiplicity of major cock ups from the admin will affect thousands of lives for the duration, I do feel sorry for Boris who will have to take the can back for Kens ill thought plan to gain popularity, and the millions of Londoners who are paying for it all albeit for, or against, the pensioners, the poor and needy, the locals who have to move over, and the rest of the Country who have to pay in the middle of a recession, for the traveling circus, only in England do these major blunders occur, even in 1948 while the rest of the world was rebuilding from the war years, we was just bubbling along without a care in the world, broke, skint, in debit, up the creek without a paddle, showing the world, if yah wanna see idiots, look no further than SW1.
