MILLIONS of ordinary Europeans look set to lose their chance of getting steadily sick of Tony Blair until they despise him with every fibre of their being.France and Germany last night refused to back the former prime minster as Europe's first president, insisting the EU was a large and complex political union and not an excuse for some jumped-up actor to have his own plane.
The job now looks likely to go to a lower profile candidate despite Gordon Brown attempting to secure the job for Mr Blair in a twisted, malevolent bid to inflict his former colleague on the EU before he is chased out of Downing Street next spring.
Friends of Mr Blair say he may now be forced to look for a new continent to lie to every time he opens his mouth, with some suggesting Africa may still be susceptible to his clapped-out brand of greasy bullshit.
Tom Logan, professor of international politics at Reading University, said: "Some Africans still seem to think Tony Blair might actually be Jesus rather than a millionaire consultant to various multi-national corporations that want to bribe their army and steal their land."
Jan Vankerken, a sales executive from Antwerp said he was disappointed, adding: "I really wanted to be vaguely optimistic about him to start with before quickly seeing through the shiny veneer and then developing the kind of nausea and self-loathing one might feel after having dirty sex with a merchant banker.
"I then wanted to experience the month upon month of sickening, transparent lies while European newspapers were bullied into submission by some oleaginous mortgage fraudster and a bag-piping psychopath.
"And then I wanted him to try and frighten me into supporting a war that was obviously for the benefit of American corporations while I resigned myself to the fact there was nothing I could do about it because they had all been planning it for years.
"And I also really wanted the chance to hate his ghastly wife from day one."

Yep, sounds like a hate letter to me, and yes of course, France and Germany have better candidates in mind for this position of power that everyone has an interest or something at stake here.
AntwortenLöschenSounds more like satire to me. There's even a link at the end, to the humour site it came from =)
AntwortenLöschenIt's a tricky one. Blair has a big enough name, as I argued with Frank on Elephants' yesterday... something many others don't. But he's just very unpopular in some quarters because of that illegal invasion issue, and the almost habitual lying. The current crop are even called 'Blairites' as if he invented a new ideology. It's one whose time is up very soon.
I could see half of Europe refusing to recognise him, as some your side of the pond seem to do with Obama. Why France and Germany. Spain is hopeful. Frank said there's a competent Irish candidate. Barrosso in Portugal? There are options.
I suspect they're just playing with us. There's going to be no EU President anytime soon. Just testing the water. The international bankers and globalists probably want Blair, but it looks like they may have to wait.
Merkel and Sarkozy are leaders of conservative parties, they will never support a labour EU president. Another point that speaks against Blair or any British candidate is that GB is not even a member of the Euro zone.
AntwortenLöschenBlair is seen along the lines as a career politician and who did play puppet to Bush, no fault of his own. What could he have done...
AntwortenLöschenDon't you think that the leaders of France and Germany have a higher recognition as far as their voices being heard?
I am not sure of the candidates that you speak of, but I believe that the UK should strongly campaign for a post of High Representative.
Said no. He wouldn't have been alone
AntwortenLöschenThan Spain, Ireland, Portugal or Norway? No.
AntwortenLöschenA united Europe without Britain is almost inconceivable, but it's little more than an aircraft carrier for the US nowadays, and I can't think of one reason why there has to be a prominent Brit in high office at all.
AntwortenLöschenright on all counts ulla how can he even think about it lol
AntwortenLöschenhe could have said NO
AntwortenLöschenthey don't even belong to most of it
right on
AntwortenLöschenUnfortunately Blair Hatred (B1H1) remains something of a postcode lottery across Europe, there are clusters of course centred on England where the virus first escaped from a secret laboratory, but in an attempt to prevent B1H1 becoming an EU-wide pandemic moves have taken place to isolate the pathogen.
AntwortenLöschenBlair Hatred has cost hundreds of thousands of lives in the recent past and is widespread almost everywhere outside Europe, except in the US where Tony Blair is widely viewed as the prototype for the Obama Puppet, an off-white updated model that was last Christmases must-have craze across the Atlantic.
Thank God for the WHO.
Has been since 1941 pigeon.
