No doubt at the conclusion we'll have Cameron claiming it's the tories' investment in sports that was responsible for TeamGB's success and to further incentivise young athletes for Rio 2016, Gove will announce a further round of cuts to schools sports funding.
Oh and Gideon will blame the triple-dip on the Olympics

Can't get too excited about these Games. Twenty years ago you wouldn't have got the TV controls out of my hand. I'd have been watching blanket coverage.
Cynicism Rules OK!!!
Anyways, go on Luke my son. Bring that boxing GOLD back to St Pauls in Hull.

I felt a bit like that before the games started, but the achievements of the athletes have brought me round. Last night was just a wonderful, historic, sporting moment, and I'm glad I watched it unfold.
