Despatches wanted to get information from LOCOG, the body which is
delivering the Olympics. LOCOG refused. Despatches demanded the
information under the Freedom Of Information act. LOCOG said that act
doesn't apply to them, because they are a private company! Despatches then
found out that LOCOG is mainly owned by Ken Livingstone and Tessa Jowell!


That's ok then - it would obviously be a totally different matter if the
private company was owned by the Mayor and the Minister for the Olympics and
London...
