Simon who commented on my post I’m not backing the bid emailed me. He points to a website for those – like me – who are fed up with ads in London instructing us to support the 2012 Olympic bid. The official website asks for votes of support but provides no place for dissent.

Well someone has responded with nolondon2012 where you can now NOT back the bid. It also points to a French site where you can back the Paris bid. Which I did.
