Me and The BBC

Me and Sana just got back from an event in Stratford that BBC London was holding this evening. BBC London invited me to be in the audience at a TV debate for the London 2012 Olympics; Tessa Jowell (Olympics Minister), Lord Coe (Chairman of the Organising Committee), Ken Livingstone (Mayor of London), and some Conservative MP were there too on the panel.


Also, I got to meet w/ Tessa, who’s REALLY nice, and w/ Lord Coe, who is a right old wanker. But, I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I think Sana did as well. The BCC said they selected me to be in the audience b/c they really liked my questions I e-mailed them, so here they are:
A. What transportation measures are being planned, and will be implemented, for people with physical disabilities (wheelchairs etc) to and from the Olympic sites during the London 2012 Olympic Games? And will you put further accommodations to assist people with disabilities during the Olympic Games?

B. Will all the Olympic site/venues be entirely accessible for disabled people at the 2012 Olympic Games?

C. What are you doing to involve disabled people actively to participate before and during the London 2012 Olympic Games?

What do you think? I didn’t get to ask my Qs during the debate, but thankfully I met w/ Tessa afterwards and got to ask her my Qs then.


The 2012 TV debate airs on Thursday on BBC London, and I’ll tell you how it goes. Overall, it was a BLOODY WICKED experience, and is a BLOODY BRILLIANT start to me becoming the king of the world in PR/Advertising…
