    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2008
    I hesitate to come in but it is always nice to follow the flat earth wing of the Tory Party. Would you not agree that a different interpretation of the sponsorship issue is that the Olympics must grandstand British business if at all possible, and be used to highlight our success, and that we should celebrate that?
