Much of the controversy around the games has stemmed from the sheer amount of investment that's been put into the project. Many people opposed to the idea of the Games were outspoken that such a large amount of money could be spent, whilst the rest of the country struggled to make its way through a recession.
That being said, organisers claim that the economical benefits of hosting the games will outweigh the investments that have been made in the city in the long term.
58% of UK respondents felt that the games will bring large economic benefits to the UK, with only 16% of UK respondents disagreeing completely, this brings confidence and the benefits will be long term because of sustainability and economic advantages which will help for a better future.
75% of those UK respondents surveyed said they had no interest in getting tickets for the Games at all, and that 15% of UK respondents tried, but were unable to secure tickets for the Games even though they applied along time ago which shows a poor response with the Olympic games for which was suppose to be a big event for the British even though they are denied tickets to see it.
