UK: Tony Blair

Philip Terzian says:"It used to be said that French scandals were about money and British scandals about sex, but where do the current Blair scandals stand in the annals of embarrassment? They seem to be a combination of the two. I trust that WAISers are enjoying the mortification of the socialist government as much as I am: Cherie Blair's con man "financial adviser" who is about to be deported to Botany Bay; her "lifestyle guru" who was formerly a topless model; the million-dollar flats in Bristol purchased as an investment on the fraudster's advice; Cherie's attempts to influence judges in the con man's deportation case; the growing spat between the Downing Street "Director of Communications" and the Blairs about their low-life acquaintances; the Blairs' "re-birthing" ceremony last summer in Mexico, featuring splattered mud and a virtual trip down the birth canal; questions in the House; Cherie's status as a QC in jeopardy and her tearful statement to the press -- oh, it's all too delicious and Clintonian for words! Just imagine Mr & Mrs Stanley Baldwin furnishing such entertainment"

RH: Tony Blair is a friend of ex-President Clinton..
