This 'thing' exists because in The UK now everything of a public nature has to be done by committe and everyone involved has to have equal input and no-one else is allowed to judge anyone elses' input as invalid.
As you can imagine - this sucks.
It has crept into university life also. When we made films, even people with no ability had to be allowed to use a camera, edit, act etc, all for equal periods of time instead of every person having a role in production that actually suited their abilities. Whenever you met as a group with your proffessor supervisor, you had to hold an object during the discussion and whomever held the object could speak and no-ne was allowed to interupt and everyone's opinion was equally vallid etc.
Thus you had films that were a medly of mediocrity and lameness as they were made by committee and thus you have a logo for the next olympics which makes a nation look like an 8 year old schoolchild.
DAMN YOU LABOUR. DAMN YOU BLAIR. |

Doesn't it say "Zoin"?
Or possibly "Noiz", which is "Zion" backwards. That's antisemitic! Typical western media, always bashing Israel every chance it gets.
But seriously, it's a mind-control device. It is so shockingly repulsive, the brain can't handle it, so slips into a semi-trance state that allows the subliminal messages in the ads that follow to have maximum effect. Elementary. |

Although partly designed to bring the world closer, the Olympics can sometimes bring out the worst in countries (and people). I give you Korea's gracious hosting of the Olympics in 1988. If only we could all just participate in this spirit.
