Whilst the British showcased their music with an impressive set at the London Olympics...

Tiger Feet by Mud. Really bloody impressive...

Yes and much better than hiring a dutchman to flip some records, that definitely showcased the best of Hellenic culture back in the 2004 Olympics.

Yes. They should have performed the "Chariots of Fire" by Vangelis instead.

Bill, when you were dwelling in caves we already had cholesterol.
What bloody childish debates .... mine is bigger than yours!

I would just like to point out that the British were building houses 11500 years ago....

The mistery of who were the Choirokoitians now enlightened.

It seems that strong critisim of the opening ceremony goes on and on and turns nasty:

Olympics opening ceremony was 'multicultural crap',

Tory MP tweets

Conservative MP Aidan Burley, who was sacked as a ministerial aide for attending Nazi-themed stag party, rails against Danny Boyle's work on Twitter

THE LONDON OLYMPICS OPENING CEREMONY; OR, THE MAGGOTS IN THE CORPSE OF A ONCE-GREAT NATION

Malcolm Pollack writes at his blog:

Drool, Britannia

I saw a little of the Olympics opening ceremony last night; it was playing on the television at a local eatery where our small nuclear family, soon to be riven to opposite hemispheres of the globe, had gathered for a bite.
It was, from what I could see, a dismayingly shallow and garish entertainment. Apparently the only things worth noticing about Britain nowadays are its shoddy socialized health system, its fondness for pop music, and its fashionably (and forcibly) randomized demography, which has so atomized this once-coherent population that it is now apparently the law of the land that no two people of the same human subgroup may appear on stage at the same time.
