I am thinking this will result in a security wankathon that will make the Olympics look like a picnic.

US President Barack Obama and other world leaders will visit Wales for next year's Nato conference, Prime Minister David Cameron announced today.

The decision to bring next year’s Nato summit to Newport’s Celtic Manor will boost the South Wales economy, with around 1,500 journalists and many world leaders expected to attend. Last year’s event in Chicago was expected to inject $123m into the city’s economy.

Mr Cameron said: “I think it’s a great moment for Wales to advertise its modern and economically brilliant face to the world. We’re going to have up to 60 world leaders, including President Obama and president of France and the chancellor of Germany coming to Wales for this vitally important Nato conference so I think it’s a very good moment for Wales to put its best forward.....

DrRingDing sorry

Though I fail to see what a photo of people rioting in Athens has got to do with a Nato conference in Newport. Some of the locals are more likely to attempt sell pills and whiz to the delegates than riot.
