A year today we will be starting a 4 day weekend for the Queen's Jubilee. One thing I noticed about the planned events is that they are all in London.
With the Olympics, London is already set for a great 2012. In 2005, when London were awarded the Olympics a number of prestige projects such as the Leeds Supertram were scrapped to pay for the Olympics.
Surely some (if not all) of the Diamond Jubilee events could have been held outside the capital. It could have boosted tourism is places that will probably lose out to next year as people race to London, and help highlight to the rest of the world that there is more to the UK than London.
