Tessa Jowell has attacked the Conservative government for 鈥渟quandering鈥� the Olympic sport legacy.

鈥淐hildren are now playing less sport than they were in 2009,鈥� said Dame Tessa Jowell, who was Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport when London was awarded the Olympics 10 years ago.

Half of British medallists at the next Olympics will be from independent schools, said the former Olympics minister, who is standing to be Labour's candidate for London mayor.

鈥淚f you don鈥檛 tell schools that the money for sport is dedicated for sport, it鈥檚 spent on other things.鈥�
