The current 'London' Situation is starting to annoy alot of people. The Olympics is a classic example of an event that is for the entire UK but most of the north (inc. Scotland) and west (including Wales and Ireland off the coast of England) will not benefit. Take a look at this image of a map of the events:

The UK has one of the largest number of Football Clubs in the world. Every Major City and Town has a Football Club and the smaller towns have Rugby Stadiums. Some cities have BOTH. Leicester, for example, has The Tigers Rugby Statium a stones throw from the King Power Football Stadium.
Why are these cities not benefiting from such a hugh event and why is the Govenment not investing in the creation of Tech Campus's in all major cities in the UK?
