Finance gap weighs heavy on Jowell

With Tessa Jowell admitting that the Government would never have bid for the Olympics during a recession - and having dipped into the Games' £1bn contingency fund to keep building work going on the London Olympic village last month - are there any further details to worry taxpayers concerned about waste on this vanity project? Naturally. The Olympic Delivery Authority is still searching for a Head of Finance. Most reassuring.
