millionreasonsGood grief.
'On that night of the 12th May, 1994, I needed that love Cherie gave me, selfishly. I devoured it to give me strength. I was an animal following my instinct, knowing I would need every ounce of emotional power to cope with what lay ahead. I was exhilarated, afraid and determined in roughly equal quantities.’
'Bono could have been a president or prime minister standing on his head. He had an absolutely natural gift for politicking, was great with people, very smart and an inspirational speaker... motivated by an abundant desire to keep on improving, never really content or relaxed. I knew he would work with George [W. Bush] well, and with none of the prissy disdain of most of his ilk.'
'[Nelson Mandela] can be as fly as hell when the occasion demands. I bet Gandhi was the same.'
Has The Journey been ghost-written by the same 'writer' who ghosted for Katie Price? Turns out Blair's real crime was not the invasion of Iraq, the part-privatisation of public services, or the erosion of civil liberties but being a terrible, terrible writer.
The picture on the front of the book looks ripe for scary red devil eyes as in the New Labour New Danger Conservative adverts. It's galling to think that those ads were right.
Lastly, The Gospel According to St Tony.
