I do hope Boris has arranged suitable seating arrangements for Murdoch, apparently he has trouble sitting these days. Nothing to do with hemorrhoids, it's the queue of tories with their tongues up his arse

I noticed Cameron stayed the hell away from The Royal Artillery Barracks today

funny how the British cyclists admission that he cheated in the first round of the team race has been largely ignored by the same media that hounded the badminton players out of the competition.

No so funny as the furore over the little 16 year old Chinese girl at the swimming as compared with the 15 year old Lithuanian girl who also won gold in an astonishing way but who happened to be trained in this country. That's what makes me proud to be British, our unbiased media.

he didn't cheat, your ignorance of track cycling is noted.

He didn't cheat. He was probably guilty of gamesmanship but that's all. He broke no rules, although after these Games I would imagine the international cycling body will clarify the rules to make sure only something like mechanical failure is allowed for a restart!
Somebody should have schooled him in the art of answering media questions though before they let him loose as had the rules been more specific, that admission could have resulted in the gold being lost, which would have been a travesty.

Having seen the 2 British competitors in the women's Heptathlon, I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that Kirkstaller was right all along, there is a God.
