Tony & Cherie Blair

[Ulysses]

At about 4am this morning i was wide awake and i was watching Sky News, the main story was related to the Blairs and the fact that since leaving Downing Street almost 18 months ago they'd amassed over £50million pounds from various business ventures. Surprisingly this news item hasn't emerged today but i did find this article from the Telegraph from 2 days ago

If you're reading this Tones, fancy becoming our new chairman and giving Tilly a bit of that dosh? EU Presidency is overrated anyway...

Sod off Ant, looking at the pair of them's false smiles on such a regular basis would make me feel physically sick :puke

To get at Donny Osmond, would you go through Tony Blair?

:stunned: Bearing in mind it's Tinks that likes Donny, I'd probably be beaten to him!

The lovely Cherie Blair did a fund raising appeal for victims of land mines.

Only charged the charity £100,000 for her services.

Playing devils advocate here (and I don't know the answer) but how much did she raise them? If it was say £1million, surely that's cracking value for money?

If we didn't have a transfer embargo Ron should sign her up!!

 

[TrueBlue]

You don't even know them!

I have had the pleasure of meeting both and they really are a nice couple! meet people and make your OWN judgements not ones that the press have pre-programmed for you.

indeed, it'd be good to know how much was made

Whatever it was, it could have be £100,000 more if she wasn't so ****ing greedy.

 

[Hotman]

Ok MK, how about you work for free so that your company save the tenner an hour or whatever you're paid, together with the bandwith wasted on shrimperzone?

Nothing to do with the press, and we all make judgements on people without knowing them, you and I BOTH know that!

The only way you know them though, is presumably through the press. Unless you do actually know them personally?

Yeah but I'm not already a multi-millionaire am I? Unusual for such a staunt right-wing advocate to be defending a "lefty" eh?

I know former constituents......their opinion is good enough to back up the ones I've formed myself over the years.

I say they are ok and thats that because TrueBlue said so ;)

 

[Boreham Shrimper]

Sorry but the Blairs are the biggest self-serving bunch of ***** I have ever seen. Charging £100,000 for a charity event pretty much says it all I think.
