Romney questions Brits' patriotism

And yesterday we found out that Romney questioned the achievement of our Olympic athletes (probably because they weren't able to buy their way into the Olympics, like Romney did).

Brit govt says no way Romney will carry Olympic Torch after insults

From the BBC show Newsnight's Twitter feed:

@BBCNewsnight: Will Mitt Romney carry the Olympic torch? "Certainly not after today", according to Olympics Minister Hugh Robertson on #newsnight

ThinkProgress got the video - the Minister literally laughs at the notion of Romney getting to carry the Olympic torch.
