Ok, as much as he was a welcome guest on the show, I have to question a recent comment by Tony Blair that, following a defeat in the House of Commons, ‘MPs are out of touch’.
This is a man who (rightly or wrongly) took Britain to war in Iraq despite overwhelming public opposition (pre war Gallup put it around 70% in the UK opposed).
What does he know that is so in touch with the public? Does he merely read The Sun and see that as the voice of the people? Although I didn’t vote for her I’m pleased that my local MP (Labour, and a former criminal lawyer) opposed this detention bill.
Stephen Fry for PM in my mind. And I’d have Jose Mourinho, Andrew Flintoff, Chas’n’Dave and Bobby Gillespie in the cabinet.
