Five reasons why the Olympics have been great for Great Britain:
1. Confirming our place in the world as a great sporting nation.
2. Encouraging a culture of aspiration and competition. Establishing a new generation of positive heroes for young people to look up to.
3. Uniting our diverse country around a common theme. Strengthening the Union between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
4. Reclaiming the Union Flag away from groups like the BNP. Flying the Union Jack will no longer be a rarity.
5. Reminding the world how beautiful our country is. Many more will come to visit.
