That little preview with the bus this morning was extremely cringy. Apart from that, Its the PERFECT place for terrorists to target.
It's also pretty obvious the ceremonies, graphics, venues and logo aren't going to live up to this year already.
We should be ashamed for bidding. Not celebrating it. It's going to be worse than Athens

What a defeatist attitude! Do you give up on everything or something?
There would be nothing I would hate more that to give in and pass it on to someone else! That to me sounds like a failure and anyone that doesnt try and just gives up is a failure. Thats not what the UK is about, we have our own story to tell the world, our royalty, our growth throughout the year.
Some people need to learn to respect their own country, if you dont like it here please go somewhere else. The UK is my home and I believe that it can deliver 100%
Do you go to art galleries? Do you go to the theatre? If you do then you will know what people in the UK are capable of and we have extreme talent and we can make our own fantastic opening ceremony. Bejing was good but I think London will be more interesting.
I am actually just quite annoyed at the defeatist approach you have to life, I hope you are not gonna get a job where you have to make brave decisions or stick up for yourself because to me it sounds like if someone is better than you, you just give in! So what if bejiing is better than us? This is a chance for the country to come together, show the world who we are and what we do. Dont think of this as a contest but a chance and a celebratin of UK Culture. Dont know what UK Culture is? Try going to see a film or go to the theatre or to a gallery, its all their mate. Just open your eyes.
And what are you on about terrorists werent a threat to Bejing? Are you JOKING me?! Did you not see the torch relay?!
