These witty, eccentric things convey the greater sense of ease that Britain feels about itself as a result of these last two weeks. The Olympics cost a lot of money, but in the longterm they will prove worth it. They’ve held a mirror up to the UK and we’ve seen diversity, energy, enthusiasm, teamwork and talent smiling back. That the rest of the world might have wondered what on Earth we were going on about hardly matters. We’ve won the battle with ourselves.
