Why do they give airtime to these f*ckwits?

Because he's right. The real fuckwits are the one's who didn't learn the lesson of the G8 at Balmoral; turn one potential target into a ring of steel and it means you have all your security assets concentrated in a single area. And then something like 7/7 happens.

Any terrorist intelligent enough to mount an operation that is a real threat is also smart enough not to try it in a city where the security forces look like the love children of Sgt Henno and Judge Dredd. On steroids.

Few things would give me greater pleasure than watching Call Me Dave and the rest of the so-called VIP's being slaughtered on live TV by the Taliban Synchronized Suicide Team, but it's never going to happen. London will be the safest city on earth. Everywhere else will be as wide open as an Essex girl's legs on a Friday night. And not just for terrorists: violent crime will go through the roof, since the vast majority of firearms and public order trained coppers in the UK will be called up for Mutual Aid by the Met.

And there will be riots. In spite of all the excuses, the sad and simple truth is that the police lacked the intelligence, numbers and, in all too many cases, the intestinal fortitude to deal with the rioters. And the untermenschen are well aware of this. With the vast majority of knuckle-draggers enjoying a holiday in the Smoke, it will open season in every other major city.

The debris blitzes Newham, Waltham Forest, Broadwater Farm and the Finsbury Park mosque, while a stray engine ploughs into an LGBT meeting chaired by Peter Tatchell and Brian Paddick, with Red Ken, Fat Diane, Orange Peter and Gobby Shami as guest speakers. Other bits of shrapnel take out Polly Toynbee, Vince Cable, Harridan Hatemen, Jonathan Ross and several branches of Greggs/McDonald's full of illiterate, smelly, workshy oiks. Have I missed anything?

Yes. You have missed Liverpool

The only way it will work is in a last ditch calculation: "tens of thousands of Londoners are worth a lot less than a stadiumful of VIPs and athletes". Other than that, it is useless.

If it's anything bigger than a manpad, they will probably need temporary planning permission!

I'm struggling to see the down side.

Sadly mate, I have to agree.

(Though even for once my lid-bashing wasn't going to come out, as I think it is either going to be boring or a disaster).

We should have let Paris have it.

Seven billion over budget and an absolute refusal to admit England contains anything but London for the entire year, what a bargain.
