TEN REASONS WHY TONY BLAIR SHOULD BE EU PRESIDENT

1) He will show proper respect for the US State Dept. His old pal George never got anything wrong, and he won’t change the habits of a lifetime.

2) He has no known conscience or scruples.

3) He will always ignore British public opinion.

4) He has no commitment to democracy and accountability.

5) Tony is a good friend of Silvia Berlusconi, Sarkhozy and Merkel, in fact all of the EU right wing leadership

6) The EU needs a good front man and Tony has all the skills of a Bruce Forsyth. He never lets facts get in the way of what he is arguing. - Think sexed up dossiers.

7) As an international diplomat, he really knows a good hotel.

8) He will totally support a neo Liberal agenda and the free market

9) He will probably lead the EU into its first declaration of war.

10) He will be awarded the post in a totally anti democratic fix

One reason why he won’t- It only pays £250,000 a year!!!!!.
