Poll shows UK support for London 2012

A new UK- wide survey shows public support for London 2012 at 78 per cent.
The poll also reveals a high level of confidence (76 per cent) that the UK will stage successful Games in four years time.

The 78 per cent support is up 2 per cent from the 2007 survey.

Strongest support came in Northern Ireland (89 per cent) and in London (84 per cent).

Tessa Jowell, Olympic Minister, welcomed the poll's findings: 'The support of people across the UK for the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games is an important expression of our hope that London 2012 will be everyone's Games.’
