A bizarre Xmas tale
There I was, watching yesterday's Newsnight trial of Tony Blair for being interviewed by the police and dropping the Saudi Arabia fraud case when Kirsty Wark suddenly morphed into the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland screaming "off with his head". I must have been dreaming. Or was I?
Even stranger to hear Jonathan Aitken sticking up for the government on the Today programme this morning!
Convicted perjurers, corrupt businessmen and Saudi princes ... we're keeping great company ...

Ditch the corrupt Saudis, and the Israelis for that matter, and lets bring peace to the Middle East. The two of them are a greater treat to security than Al Quida.

You have to admire Stan R being the lone survivor of the Blair fan club, but did he expect Kirsty to give Tone a New Year hug? He has a problem dodging the bullets in Basra and the Bizzies back home, but is the Bee Gees pool really the answer? The obcene Saddam trial/hanging is probably an appropriate end to a gruesome year!Re "bribing" either we are bringing democracy (honesty? or US style capitalism?) to the Arab world or we're happy with the good old backsheesh?
