As with Ericsson...the phrase 'be careful what you wish for' may well come back to haunt us!

As an example of how someone who was thrown out of school for something that would now land you on a certain register, with an arrest for burglary, a 2nd class law degree can still get to be a barrister via Lincoln's Inn and then Prime Minister.

Makes you proud doesn't it.

With a father-in-law actor that was type-cast as a northern layabout who has also appeared in porn films. (Booth was in at least one of the ‘confessions of …’ films)

You need to revisit your interpretation of porn.

Did I see Cherie Booth's dad playing a tramp in Emmerdale this week?

As an Australian I am naturally completely ignorant of politics home and abroad. To me Tone seems like a nice bloke, plays the guitar and stuff. Can someone briefly outline why his tenure hasn't been looked upon favourably. What should he have done or should not have done (domestically) during his time at no.10?

Tony Blair is the greatest actor the UK has ever seen. His performances portraying a nice bloke playing a guitar were fantastic.

Anyone so sleazy, deceitful and arrogant that can pull that off deserves an Oscar.

The three words I'll use to remember Tony Blair are: Spin, Sleaze and Incompetence.

The fact that so many people think he was a good prime minister, or even a good bloke, shows how well the spin worked. If I had to choose one word it would be Iraq.

However, Blair might be a prize c***, but just wait until you see Gordon Brown!
