The Commonwealth Games in Melbourne are drawing to a close. Presumably, there been increased tourism? Have the restaurants and bars done well? Or has business been slow during the Games? The bits of the broadcast that I have seen suggest that the coverage is nationalistic.
I'm afraid that I haven't that paid much attention to the Games. But I did like the way the cartoonists linked them to the British monarchy's fleeting visit and used them to weve lots of interesting ideas :

The visit of the Queen of England is used as reflecting mirror that illuminates some of the darker corners of the negative effects of political power and desire.
