In 2007 he informed the Pope he wanted to become catholic. (Tony Blair resigned as PM in 2007) The cartoon is dated 2009 and the title of the cartoon that day was 'Tony Blair sold Iraq on WMD, but only regime change adds up'. Looked around and same date as the cartoon. http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/dec/16/iraq-chilcot-inquiry-john-sawers quote:Tony Blair might have been put off Iraq war by violent aftermath, says adviser Betjeman posted:Jesus, there really is a death panel and it's financially incentivised Its not a death panel and that wikipedia link is beyond basic and hosed up. I can't explain it very well but kim jong ill or another UKMT goon doctor would be able to explain it perfectly. I will try and find his past posts about it. Generally the tabloid gutter press don't know anything about science or medicine.

Europhobia is the only shield they can use whilst killing Dave and Nick in their beds. Which they can't, because homophobia is broken and...something...something Labels are just loving awful, its pretty much just hamfisting somethings that have happened together. Richard III's skeleton was found, MPs vote for gay marriage (which passed but more then half the tories voted against it). Tories are massively anti EU at the moment (well they generally have been since 1997 I think, can't remember if John Major was anti EU) and pretty much being complete dicks to Europe (also called for a referendum on whither to stay in the EU or not if tories get in next election). NCP [National Car Parks] which is UKs largest private car park operator, they do poo poo tons of train stations, airports, cities etc, however I don't know why they are in the news. Lasagna as pointed out with the whole horse meat sold as beef fuckup. Pay and decay? something to do with petrol or might be related back to NCP? I don't know. Generally when tons of stuff like that is done well its great (like Rowson). However this is just pure labels and pretty , which is depressing as I like Riddell's art style. It's just he can't help but do cartoons based around poo poo tons of labels or wall of text . Fluo fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Feb 12, 2013 |

There is talk because of that being ruled unlawful there is hints (underscore hints) at a lot more people doing the same and the government may have to pay compensation for all the unpaid hours they were forced to do.
