Blair should get an Oscar (and a Bafta and a Golden Globe)

I remember, when I was at Fettes, seeing Tony Blair’s performance as Mark Anthony in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. Blair was brilliant. A star even at that age. I was reminded of Blair’s acting talent when seeing him dance round the bumbling, overpaid, obsequious�idiots running the Chilcott enquiry. Blair’s fake emotion, self-pity, dramatic pauses, attempts to portray himself as a conscience-wracked leader only trying to do the best for his country. What a masterful performance, when we all know that he lied, deceived, falsified evidence and tricked us into an illegal war.

It would be great to have this piece of scum hauled off to the Hague to face trial as a war criminal. Then we could have weeks of Blair’s brilliant performances, performances that are way beyond the abilities of�most real actors.
