No, because... The money is not going towards a good cause
The Olympics is not just about sport; it is an international event that brings prestige upon the host nation. Obviously plenty of funds need to be dedicated to the 'hosting' aspects of the games, as well as to supporting out sportsmen.
Board members and directors of the Olympic Delivery Authority state that the budget has grown from £2.4 billion to £9.3 billion, but there are rumours in the news that the money has been used to throw lavish parties and to pay for meals at some of London’s top restaurants, according to documents released under the Freedom of Information Act .
