Proceeding contribution from Andy Burnham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 October 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Olympic Legacy.
Olympic Legacy
I know that the hon. Gentleman is not fabled for his imagination, but he should try to think of the possibility of an Olympic team training on his doorstep, at a local training camp. Can he not imagine what that will do to inspire—[Interruption.] I am sure that national teams will train in west Yorkshire. He should think about how positive that will be and not be so cynical. His constituents under the age of 25 will not be anywhere near as cynical as he is about the Olympic games.
