If he'd have gone, he would have been called a publicity seeking hypocrite. Can't really win.

 

[Tory Boy]

Far be it for me to defend Blair, but is anyone on NSC going?

Or are we all 'Heartless Bastards'?

TB

 

[ditchy]

Did anyone on NSC know him well enough !

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Tony Blair & Robin Cook didn't get on. That's obvious. Blair probably felt Cook stabbed him in the back over Iraq, and Cook felt the same.

That would be like us going to the funeral of Scott McGleish

 

[Eddie the Seagull]

He does happen to be a 13 hour flight away aswell.

 

[ditchy]

Isnt he going to italy again

He's in the Bahamas which also means he'd be at least 5 hours buggered in terms of jetlag.

 

[ditchy]

If it got him brownie points in his eyes he would be there !

 

[Easy 10]

Brownie points in his eyes ?

Sounds painful.

 

[ditchy]

IT does EASY !

 

[Stat Brother]

Who's to say he was invited.
I don't imagine fully respecting RC's wishing involved Blair tagging along.

Hes actually in Scotland

 

[Brighton Breezy]

To be honest I dont think Cook would have wanted Blair to attend.

Anyone else have suspicions that Thatcher attended Heath's funeral was the old bag having the last word?

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Why should He ,By all accounts He couldn't stand the ugly little fucker.

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

Who gives a shit about whether he attends or not
