The world-famous Red Arrows have been banned from appearing at the
2012 London Olympics because they are deemed "too British".

Organisers of the event say that the Arrows military background
might be "offensive" to other countries taking part in the Games.

The display team have performed at more than 4000 events worldwide,
but the Department of Culture, Media and Sport have deemed the
display team "too militaristically British".

Yet one more reason for casting the last of British soil off my shoes forever.


Sorry Roger

This one's an old lie.

It was exploded weeks ago.


I would have thought the ban on aerobatics over crowds or built up areas would have covered this.
