Twenty-four MPs have written to London 2012 organisers Locog urging them to withdraw a 拢7m contract for the Olympic stadium鈥檚 fabric wrap, which was awarded to the Dow Chemical Company.

Campaigners including 21 former Olympians have joined the MPs鈥� protest, saying the company has outstanding liabilities relating to the 1984 Bhopal gas leak which killed up to 20,000 people.

Dow bought the plant鈥檚 owner Union Carbide in 2001.

Under the current agreement, Dow will fund the stadium鈥檚 wrap in exchange for being allowed to advertise on its 336 fabric panels before the start of the Games.  

The decision sparked outrage in India, where the Bhopal Group for Information and Action said: 鈥淒ow as sponsor of Olympics is like a dance on the graves of Bhopal gas victims.

鈥淭he London Olympic organisers must show some moral responsibility and remove Dow from the sponsors list.鈥�

Tessa Jowell, the shadow Olympics minister, did not sign the letter to Locog committee chairman Lord Coe, but said the organisation had serious questions to answer about how the deal came about, and the associated 鈥渞eputational risk鈥�.

Those opposed to Dow鈥檚 sponsorship have suggested it could lead Indian athletes to boycott the 2012 Games, but Lord Coe told the Commons culture, media and sport select committee he had 鈥渘o sense at all鈥� that this had been considered.

Barry Gardiner, the Labour MP leading the campaign, said Dow was engaged in a blatant attempt to detoxify its brand.

He said: 鈥淚 don鈥檛 want to see the Games in London tarnished by a company that has blood on its hands and refuses to face up to its liabilities.鈥�

Dow has previously said that while the past must never be forgotten, its position as an Olympic sponsor represents its 鈥渧ision for the future鈥�.

鈥淔undamentally, the Olympic Games are about peace, progress, sustainability and the world coming together to celebrate our common humanity. We share that vision and are committed to achieving it,鈥� a company spokesman said.
