Incredibly, London Mayor Boris Johnson has been the subject of ire among mayoral candidates (big surprise there) who claim that jobs created by the Olympic Games are going elsewhere instead of to Londoners.

“There was a great deal made about the fact that local residents would be the first in line for jobs during the construction, but in the end the definition of local was so vague that most of the jobs went to foreign workers, who simply had to provide a local address,” mayoral candidate Lawrence Webb told LondonlovesBusiness. “Now, we discover that the contract to print the tickets is going to a company outside the UK altogether.”
