Statue to Tony Blair

[jd101k2000]

My understanding was that Blair had converted to Roman Catholicism so that he could be beatified and go on to be recognised as a true saint. He can already walk on water, convert water into wine and is quite the host (in his head he is not really looking to be a saint but to be recognised as the second coming).

I can see why this thread has been started... in opposition to the Margaret Thatcher one, but that was started because of the suggestion that there be a MT day. I do not think there has been a suggestion of a Blair day. If there were to be such a day, we could celebrate it with rockets made from the remains of the hidden 'weapons of mass destruction'. (Did anyone actually believe that they existed?)

And his wife made ordinary people look over at their spouses and think 'do you know, I could have married someone a lot uglier'

You always make me lol !
Then the wife asks, "what's so funny? Mmmmm?"

or maybe he didn't do it earlier because of the constitutional problems of a catholic PM? and the chance of him still not getting that job even though he wasn't officially a tory?

More to the point - I've heard that the reason pope Benedict resigned was because he was getting nightmares after taking Tone's confession - and he only did the first installment - there were twelve more to go!!!

Perhaps a point was missed, but the image of your Mrs T with a Pigeon on her head made me chuckle!
