State Visit

Why Tony Blair isn’t fearing for his life, I have no idea. Why Queen Elizabeth is according more pomp and circumstance to this American “President” than any during her reign, I have no idea. Why these people combined don’t understand that the scene in “Love, Actually” where the newly-installed Prime Minister delivers a witty, biting dig at the fatuous, vain, self-involved American President isn’t, actually, the projected fantasy of Great Britain, I’m none the wiser.

Coup de Vent will be demonstrating against this nonsense. Good for her. If I were there, I’d join her in the streets.

This is so much like a bad novel I want to go and get back to my good one, The DaVinci Code. But the plot is no less sinister.
