London 2012 Olympics

Where did I say you said it would cost the taxpayer £1billion?
You said the taxpayer contribution has already been accounted for with ticket sales. But the taxpayer contribution is more like £9billion..

money paid by tax payers has already been made back by ticket sales.

They've made £1billion on the London 2012 merchandising programme already and they have sold around 11 million tickets.

So, where's the rest of the £9 billion coming from?
