Construction will start two years before the Olympics?
Well, there is the point that the Olympics won't need TBMs, but i'm not
convinced.

John Kay (who he? -ed.) doesn't like it, no sir:


I can foresee that in 2011 (like the JLE in 1998/9) the papers will
start to say, 'Why isn't this thing ready? It's meant to be ready for
the 2012 Olympics!?'
Then the Gov will throw squillions of pounds at it and it'll open in
May 2012.
