Tony Blair is still on the make

It appears that our ex-Prime Minister, you remember the "purer than pure" one, the "pretty straight guy" is "making between £500,000 and £1m a month from public speaking engagements, matching the earning power of President Bill Clinton." Similar to Bill Clinton in so many ways, although not in the area of marital fidelity as far as I know. "Last month it was reported that Blair received up to £240,000 for one 20-minute speech in China. Cherie Blair typically charges about £15,000 a speech."

The Blair's have been all about money for years and with the size of their new mortgage Tony will have to make many speeches to keep up with the repayments. His gold-plated pension will help him and Cherie through their dotage unless a terrorist gets through the security that surrounds him of course - I always thought that a man who pissed off so much of the Muslim world chose an odd area of London to make his home in...
