Proceeding contribution from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Olympics Bill.
London Olympics Bill
I have been waiting patiently to say something nice to the right hon. Lady. May I say on behalf of the Scottish National party how sincerely and wholeheartedly we congratulate London on securing the games? It is incumbent upon her to match the rhetoric and demonstrate that it truly was a national UK bid. Now that we have secured the games, may we consider the ludicrous funding arrangements—the £1.75 billion of lottery money, which will deprive the grassroots sports organisations that we require to do well in 2012?
