how so? how much does it cost?

The estimated cost put forward seven years ago when the Games were won was £2.37bn

In March the overall cost of the 2012 Olympics to the public purse had risen to around £11bn

When major infrastructure projects are factored in it is estimated that the figure may be as high as £24bn

This is all taking place amid a backdrop of massive welfare, housing benefit and legal aid cuts and spiralling unemployment

Then you have the event sponsors - multi-national junk food/sweat shop/chemical companies, the ticketing fiasco, VIP 'games lanes,' all the dubious security companies involved with policing, the huge disruption it's going to cause to everyone who lives and works here etc etc

edit:misread 'olympic torch' as olympics but points still stand

i thought it was like £150 cost to produce, and then about £500 to buy if you're a torch carrier?

According to Seb Coe, that initial figure was for the stadia and other buildings (athlete's accomodation etc) only
