Guest proud2beaussie Posted October 27, 2009 Peter Hartcher | Tony Blair | EU presidency The position that Caesar, Napoleon and Hitler wanted but couldn't get now seems likely to go to Tony Blair. The mightiest strongmen in European history used brute force to become the leader of a unified Europe. Yet where they were frustrated Tony Blair seems set to succeed, not through force but by a perverse kind of politics. The 27 nations forming the European Union are on the cusp of giving the EU more heft and a clearer voice. Part of the EU's Lisbon Treaty creates a new leadership post that's been dubbed president of Europe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happy Lass 864 Posted October 28, 2009 :eek: I am sad to hear that Blair is still in favour and being taken seriously. I had hoped that he would retire quietly into a world of obscurity. “The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars.

Guest Posted October 28, 2009 Best reason for emmigrating i have seen yet. Is there any truth that DIAC are prioritising all visa applications from UK with the wording 'in order to get the hell out of here'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 28, 2009 I guess they must think that Blair as a front man will yet again cover whats going on behind the scenes financially.... they have never managed to balance their books.... how on earth do they think that Blair, with his history, is gonna do that for them??
