Just watched Sky news regarding the Olympic handover and cannot believe Myra Hindley has been choosen as a Best of British candidate.



Was this a British c--k up or Chinese ploy.



Oh by the way we were approx 12.5 mill down on team funding these games and the chinese have just spent approx 47 billion on the games

Hi Tatlisu4me



The Chinese government have no accountability to their constituents so can spend what they like on the games. They are quite happy to deprive their people of the basics in order to make this happen. It's all about image for the Chinese.

They also have a strong and well managed economy with strong reserves unlike Britain.

Saying that it was a great and well organised olympic games.



As for Hyndley. Who would feel the need to paint her in the first place? Surely there are more beuatiful things in the world to articulate and express through. Like attracts like.

I found no humour in anything to do with Myra Hindley!
