Anyone actually surprised that the Olympics is already 4 times over budget?

More important- did anyone actually believe that the government could stay in (or should I say- anywhere near) the first projections...?

I remember as soon as I heard the initial estimates I thought the governemnt was putting a woefully optimistic spin on it...I just dont believe a word out of their dirty lying mouths these days- and I think that is the real beef I have.

I just dont believe politicians are capable of telling anything remotely close to the truth...'Old news there' I hear you say... perhaps so, I just increasingly find it sad that our 'democracy' has become a shambolic farce such as modern Britain...
