I'm sure he'll give his usual candid and entirely accurate summary of what happened and why too...

When are all the Christians going to apologise for Tony Blair and GW Bush's Acts of Terror? ;)

Tony Blair would likely deny all knowledge of, well, anything given the compulsive liar he appears to have become.

I'm just glad he's the UN Middle East Peace Envoy - God only knows what sort of mess we'd be in if he hadn't selflessly dedicated his life to solving all those problems of religious hatred and intolerance... :rolleyes:

Why is Blair being questioned? I thought the 'on-the-runs' letters where an administrative error or is the entire policy under review?

Hopefully the questioning will resemble this.

Wouldn't wish waterboarding on anyone, even Blair. It's really not pleasant.

I'm sure that would apply had they said they invaded in the name of Christianity :angel:

Nice edit. Not that big a stretch, for either party.
