Bloody Moaning Minnies

Here we go again! Once again the Great British public and media are at it again, indulging lavishly in the National Pastime that is unabandoned criticism and complaining about one establishment or organisation or another, no doubt led by the press in their efforts to make a circulation-swelling mountain out of a molehill.

It's either the Health Service or Education (which most of the rest of the World envies) or the Government or the England football manager or the Millennium Dome or this or that or the next thing...

This time it's the 2012 London Olympics logo that is being savaged, probably because of the seemingly high cost and the fact that it has jagged edges instead of nice curves and straight lines that is all the fashion in current car design.

I for one think that the logo is fine and I give my full support to Lord Coe and his chums who are working to make the event a success. I'll proudly wave a flag with the logo on it when I'm in the velodrome in 2012 watching the GB cycling team crush all opposition in the track cycling!

Consider this fellow Brits - in many other countries around the World the real cost to the taxpayers of producing such an image might be, say, 200 grand, but nobody will tell you that the ad agency only got 20 grand and the rest was wasted due to incompetence or went into politicians pockets. You should be thankful that this sort of thing is disclosed to you by the Government.

Where is your patriotism and support????????????????????????? Come on! - stop moaning all the time!!
