For a second there I thought cherie had one hell of a suntan

[Merging Cultures]

It's from GQ not exactly known for their work in global development. Pinch of salt firmly taken.

It's like Rolf Harris winning a contest for best anti-paedophilia campaigner.

Oh how I dream of a day he's in the dock at the Hague....

[PAPA LAZAROU]

And he is so completely brazen . How does he sleep at night ? He is the Lizard King with no conscience. I really do hope there is a god and he better hope there isn't.

More to the point, he'd better hope there isn't a God who actually gives two fvcks about what humanity does to each other.

 

But back to the OP...yup, he and Bushie Jr should have been in the dock at the Hague (along with those slimy cvnts Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld and Cheney - the real power behind the throne, those three) a long time ago.

After reading the title then some of the comments, I wondered how tony blairs stamp collecting had made headlines!

[Guest MattP]

lol

 

I swear he knows what he has done but is actually trolling the World at the minute with stuff like this.

 

I'd also like to see him one day travelling to the Hague but it's never going to happen, he has immunity from prosecution for it. (of course which was passed while he was in power)

"Although the UK is a party to the ICC Statute and even if the ICC parties were to agree next summer on a definition of aggression and conditions for the exercise of ICC jurisdiction over that crime, Tony Blair and other UK leaders cannot be prosecuted for aggression by the ICC. This is because the jurisdiction of the ICC over aggression will not be retrospective.

Similarly, the former Prime Minister and others cannot be prosecuted in the UK's domestic courts for aggression. The crime of aggression is not included as a domestic crime in the UK's International Criminal Court Act 2001. The House of Lords in R v. Jones [2006] UKHL 16 has recognised that the crime of aggression is a crime under customary international law and that:

"a crime recognised as such in customary international law (such as the crime of aggression) may, but need not, become part of the domestic law of England and Wales without the need for any domestic statute or judicial decision." (Lord Bingham, para. 27)"

Sir Jimmy got a few awards for his fundraising activities. One cant infer goodness in all areas from goodness in one.  His charities might be doing great work for all I know.
