OK, so Chris Hoy is a good cyclist. But here he's whining that the politicians are "cashing in" on his success
"Politicians want to be involved so that they can get some sort of
association with your success and benefit from the positive feeling in
your country."
Yes Chris, but who signs the annual £4 million pound cheques to British Cycling to pay for your training? Yes old son it's the politicians. So remember, when you're using all those wonderful facilities paid for by the taxpayer, if you don't want the politicians to benefit from your success don't take the money.
Fat chance!
