Things to note: LOCOG does not have permission to enclose Circus Field (which is Metropolitan Common Land), Greenwich Council is not empowered to give them permission to do so; furthermore, the Council has a statutory duty to prevent Circus Field from being enclosed, not to look the other way while LOCOG encloses it. (More things to note will be added here.)
