An �800m white elephant, built to celebrate the year 2000, that costs the taxpayer �21m a year to maintain empty and unused. Designed, unsurprisingly enough, by [[Richard Rogers]]. It currently occasionally serves as a venue for events, and also featured at the beginning of a recent "James Bond" film. Worth the money, obviously! The Dome's future is uncertain, but the rumour is that it may become a business park for technology companies. |
The Dome suffered from heavy critism mostly from people trying to get at the [[Labour Party]]. Many people who did visit it enjoyed it. |
