Points Make Prizes

With the London Olympics just over a week away I can't help but notice how many of the competing countries flags incorporate the Union Flag. Take the Aussie and Kiwi flags- both feature the UK flag in the top left corner, taking up about a quarter of the total. It's a homage of sorts to the Mother Country and an acknowledgement of the historic links between our nations.

Australia









With this in mind, may I suggest that twenty-five percent of all medals the Aussies and Kiwis win at the Olympics are awarded instead to the host nation? It's only fair LOL.
