As expected Tony B Liar leaves no.10 Downing Street and steps into a lucrative part-time job with J P Morgan paying a cool £1m pa.

We all knew this would happen - he was always going to end up a very, very, very rich man; £100,000 per speaking engagement? It turns my stomach even to think that someone would pay him that much to speak let alone him happily accepting that sort of money. 3.8 million children in the UK still trapped in poverty, nurses and teachers getting a below inflation pay 'rise' (or cut) and he's smirking all the way to the bank. A couple of secret hand shakes and hey presto! A part time job raking in a million a year. All the more sickening when you consider the pathetic amount of compensation given to our mangled ex - servicemen and women crippled fighting his various wars (like 23-year-old Lance Bombardier Ben Parkinson who lost both legs and suffered brain damage in Afghanistan - he was awarded only £152,150 compensation).

He's obsessed with money; his freebie holidays with rich friends, the seedy cash for honours scandal - allegedly selling peerages to wealthy businessmen in return for financial funding for the Labour Party (Of course, not enough evidence so no-one prosecuted).

As you say captain, i hope the following is indeed true "And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." Would his priest have the integrity to say this to him, or just suck up to him as Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor appears to be doing with Bliars instruction into the Catholic faith.

I would love to hear his confession - but then Blair is so arrogant, he probably considers himself free from sin. 'Real purpose' career? Jesus, I'm surprised he hasn't raised his hands displaying stigmata and proclaimed himself the son of god. There is a very good word we have in the UK to describe this type of person, which i gather isn't used much in the US, and that word is WAN*ER.
