Sign of the Times

The new London Olympics logo. Hate it or really hate it? Apparently it's accessible to youth, which is probably more than can be said for the games which will no doubt be priced at a level far above that those on low incomes or who have contributed to the bloody games through the council tax will be able to afford. Well they have to recoup the losses for gross stupidity (i.e. spending £400,000) by the organisers somehow. I have learned that the eye-watering pseudo Nazi symbol that they have chosen is also able to induce epileptic seizures even in people whose epilepsy has been previously well controlled, so clearly the logo should be banned under the Disability Discrimination Act.
Mister Squeaky has carefully designed an alternative logo - (it'll only take an hour or so to clean all the chocolate off him) - the numbers "2012" spelled out in walnut whips in honour of the mayor's promise on how much the whole sorry affair is going to cost us.
