A government e-petition has been set up asking for the Prime Minister to include squash in the London 2012 Olympics.
But hurry - you only have until 12th March 2008 to respond ...
Squash narrowly failed to make it into the London 2012 games when the IOC, after a vote, decided not to include any new sports.
It is unclear whether the PM has the power to intervene with the IOC's ruling, though it's worth adding to 105 signatories already up there!

Can the government realistically do anything about this? I thought it had to be the IOC who made the decision? Anyone else know?
