Hi All ,
I did a quick browse through the posts , and find myself disagreeing with people I would probably agree with on most things.

The amount we spend on sport is money well spent .
It allows and encourages what I would see as healthy patriotism. The sort which helps with social cohesion.
It also encourages some public participation in sport which feeds through into things like health.

We are a wealthy enough country to solve , or mitigate the problems that people would like the sports funding to go to , without cutting that funding.
What next for cuts .
Arts? Cultural events?

A man does not live on bread alone , he needs his circuses as well.
A society should exist for making people happy.
The Olympics make me happy , so tough titty to the rest of you.
cheers
