Nice thought, better headline would have been Blair found dead , 60 million not helping police with their enquiries,al say "we aint seen nuffink" Scottish cyclops seen rubbing onion in to eye
Please stop doing these, it's terribly unfair for the people who use RSS readers and see "The Prime Minister Resigns" before they fall out of their chair.
YOu can post a disclaimer: "Any idiot who follows my recommendations is a total idiot and should be cared for by others at state expense."
I'm only going to risk £20. Or maybe £10.
I like Peter Hitchens's "60m people not helping police with their enquiries", although it is a little conservative. What about all the people in other countries who also aren't feeling obliging? Barbados, for example, having felt the Blairina's rod on their backs and her thighs on the cushions?
I didn't think much of her in those far off days but now compared to the disgusting people that are in power now it seems that it really was a golden age.
I was in Aswan, at the military airport, waiting for a Carnival Airlines flight back to Cairo. I was the only English person in the waiting area. Suddenly I realised that I could read two phrases on the front page of an arabic newspaper, 10 Downing Street and Buckingham Palace. Putting two and two together I let out a whoop of delight. The cabin crew, some of whom were English had also heard the glad tidings and invited me into first class to share champagne! Terrific.
Oh, thank heavens it wasn't Blair! I haven't placed my bet yet! Does anyone know how to place a bet on the internet?
ReplyDeleteUndoubtedly, the worst day of my life.
