Has Britain been good for Tony Blair? Why yes, he's soon to go on a lucrative lecture tour telling Americans how good his policies have been and how they will help him earn £15 million (assumed, apparently) in jokes, japes and parodies! :shock:

He may need to go on the lecture circuit - I read in the London Evening Standard last week (4th) that his mortgage on the £3 million property he's bought in central London is (allegedly) costing him £16000 a month and he's getting £2000 a week rent from it. The value of properties in the same square have fallen (the Standard claims) since Blair bought the five bedroom London house and the value of the two flats the Blair's have bought at Bristol have (according to a local estate agent) fallen by £25000 each (on the price paid).
As a colleague said to me "No wonder he (Blair) doesn't want to leave 10 Downing Street." :twisted:
