Coventry And London 2012

The city council's website has a small bit about London 2012, saying that the "Culture and Leisure" part of the council, with CV One, will explore hosting countries/teams in Coventry for the games.

As of today, Alice Davey (the head of culture and leisure at the city council) confirms that the council hasn't put any specific guidelines in place for the process.

I think it would be good to encourage the council to court certain countries, based on ethical criteria, i.e. we don't want Burma or Sudan to train at the University of Warwick, what with monk repression and Darfur.

New Zealand is officially non-nuclear, and Norway hosts the Nobel Peace Prize?
