In the nations interest? Say whaaaaaaaat? Another crippling sporting event run by a corrupt organisation that will, yet again, see more money from everyone's taxes being spent on an event that will interest a percentage of the country. In the middle of the biggest economic downturn in living memory. Directly after we haemorrhage billions on the Olympics.
Err, for that reason Im glad the BBC did this. I would rather have freedom of journalists to write and publish what they want, than the WC any day of the week.
