I imagine that if you are Unionist (like the Campbells) you are fine with being GB, if you are not, you aren't.
On the subject of minority sports, there was a painful succession of people ringing into Radio Five Live this morning, whinging that our medal winners in elitist sports like riding and cycling and sailing and rowing all went to private schools, and they would rather we didn't invest anything in these sports and didn't win any medals until everyone in the whole country could be given free and equal access.
Apart from the fact that Rebecca Romero, Steven Burke and Bradley Wiggins (cycling), Louis Smith (gymnastics), Peter Reed and Mark Hunter (rowing), Ben Maher (showjumping) (and probably a whole bunch more I don't even know about) didn't go to private school, the idea that there are queues of the populace putting down their beer and burgers and fags and battering at the doors of the Manchester Velodrome demanding to be allowed in to exercise was an entertaining one.
