I see a lot of people doing this olympic torch thing in game and I find it somewhat...annoying.
The London olympics are the very embodiment of one of the major political problems this country is facing.
The parasitic dominance of London in parliament and our governments inability to remember there is a UK outside the south east of England.
Thanks to that the rest of the country rots while London sucks more and more of the life out of it. Kind of funny now that I think about it considering that the character here is a vampire.

just for Steamtacular.
stematacular what about Guy Falk's, putting out the torch is synonimouse with stopping the argument and in any country or any area of that country it remains only they who hold the flame who have a say in what it doese - By the way I understand your point of view it is the helpless cry of anger that you should channel into politics, If you can't beat them from without there is only one way to win from within.
London however is not guilty of some self serving uppercrust miss-educated puppets action's, look to the hand in the glove for it is seldom the king on the throne more the one'(s) pulling the string's and as far as UK politics go or American only by making it illegal to provide financial backing for political party's over 1/3rd of the potential vote and replacing there funding with a tax based subsidy, with impartial adjudication could you ever hope to minimise the corruption engendered by those who see backing the parties financially as a key to there own power.
Alway's be carefull not to throw the baby out with the bathwater and remember the uk is not a Democracy rather it is a parliamentery monarchy which mean's the government can and will do anything they like to there country regardless of the opinion of the nation- especially when they know they are not getting re-elected next term but to undo that damage requires far more strength in there successor so it is seldom undone such as when Mr's thatcher used the miner's strikes of the 1980's to justify more stringent crowd control and anti free speech policyes while her husband an multi billionare with most of his assets well outside the uk, including funding military dictatorships in africa and owning coal mines in all but name in south america wanted to bring cheap and very nasty sulferouse coal to burn in britains then numersouse coal fired power plant's, she also used football strife to bring said controlls into effect and never forget Niel kinnocks last election were he won by a landslide but the addition of a minor constituancy turned the vote to the conservative party despite the fact it did not make mathematical sense, Electoral fraud, well britain has it.
Without TONY BLAIR, cameron could never create the policy's he has as TONY BLIAR signed the GAT WORLD TRADE AGREEMENT and was instrumental in forcing other country's to sign it, although it is long winded it is an international agreement for countrys to open up all publicly provided services (NHS,POLICE,PRISON SERVICE,AIRPORT SECURITY,JOB CENTRE,SCHOOL MEALS,EDUCATION,PENSION'S,TAX OFFICE etc) to private contractors, so your tax will be paying for substandard services making profit for wealthy private individuals while your country enters a new dark age reversing the policys of the 1950's which heralded a golden age for the british people and made the uk the envy of the world, Like i say look to the hand in the glove or the person who pulls the string's- don't be surprised if he jas two invisible horn's and worships bathamet in secret society's.
However while this fits, it will probably be the end cap, added to the chain just before the olympics start(I guess that's when we are going to end this thing). At least we know how the relay ends: in the sea of ghosts.
But I will not. Every time I am confronted by people who have forgotten how to act like human beings I will point it out. Every time I see people celebrating the slow death of my homeland in ignorance I will educate them.
Every time you try to run away I will drag you back kicking and screaming.
Just because other people are in shittier conditions is no reason to ignore our problems. The majority of the country is dying. We have youth unemployment that in real terms is easily hitting fifty percent plus. We are literally on the verge of total collapse.
The London centric thinking of our government is one of the causes of this.
To simply revel in the fun and games without paying attention to its cost is pure decadence. Something done only by fools and the corrupt.
I, in turn, find it a bit presumptuous of you to think we have a political motivation with the "Skyrim Olympcic Torch Relay". It takes it's ideas for the Olympic Games, yes, and they happen to be in London, so what? The whole thing has turned into a great project and lots of people enjoy participating, in a word: It's fun.
I, for one, am not from the UK, have no idea about the "major political problems" you talk of, and if I wanted to know I sure as hell wouldnt go looking here.
Last but not least let me give you an advice: If you find it so annoying, just ignore it. But let us have our fun.
