And so the Olympic torch has arrived here in sunny England. As anyone who hasn’t been hiding on the moon will know, this year’s olympics have been particularly controversial given that it is being hosted by China, who, let’s face it, don’t have the best human rights record, particularly with regards Tibet.
Gordon Brown is going to plough ahead in welcoming the Olympic torch, stating “The Dalai Lama himself has said that he does not want to see a boycott of the Olympics”. Oh good. Excuse me for not giving a shit. I’m sorry, but the tired old line I’ve been hearing recently that sports and politics shouldn’t mix is a load of crap.
Politics is everyones responsibility.
