Oh dear...

I'll have to change my avatar...

How fitting on the very day The Who Headlined Glasto.

Meet the new boss....

I don't normally buy a Sunday paper, but certainly bought The Independent yesterday. Blair was certainly planning to scupper Brown's career in 2005. But then the pope died and that caused a rethink.

I haven't read the article in depth, but I really can't see why the death of the Polish pope should have weakened Blair in the run-up to a General Election. Can anybody throw any light on this?

Hopefully we've seen the last of the vainglorious twat Bliar... but I won't hold my breath.

I doubt it !!

Wot? Blair, a calculating, manipulative, devious, two-faced, scheming little weasel? Well I never!!

Anyone think Gordon Brown will be any different? Do the words 'new', teach', 'old', 'tricks', 'dog' form part of a well known phrase?

Yes, I think it goes "you cannot dog tricks old or new teach"
