Tony in Trouble.

Tony Blair, the British Prime Minister, chatted live on a mobile chat with O2 subscribers today. I don’t know if the questions were sent in in text message lingo, but the transcript is remarkably legible. As asking complicated questions via a mobile handset is, well, complicated, the questions – and answers – are also remarkably concise.

I suppose one of them is gonna cause some trouble at Number 10 tonight…

Voodoo> Would you trust your wife to run the country?

PM> Well fortunately that’s not a question that’s arising!

About Tobias Schwarz

German, turned 30, balding slowly, hopefully with grace. A carnival junkie, who, after studies in business and politics in Mannheim, Paris, and London, is currently living in his hometown of Mainz, Germany, again, working on a phd when he's not too busy writing, composing, or supporting his home side Mainz 05. Turned New Labourite during a research job at the House of Commons, but difficult to place in German party-political terms. Liberal in the true sense of the term. His political writings are mostly on A Fistful of Euros these days. His personal blog Almost A Diary was a predominantly political blog in 2002-2003 but is now usually living up to its name, even though it can also be reached through the promising URL www.ichbindeutschland.de. Other bloglike activiy includes his musicblog www.tapsmusic.de, his musician account at myspace.com (myspace.com/tobischwarz), where you can listen to some of his songs..

One thought on “Tony in Trouble.

  1. Zero political information …
    But a dash of intrusiveness …

    …then again, if one can “rip” a George Bush, for example, why would that same “one” even CARE about the trivial doings of the famous .. they generally are quite ordinary beings, at best ….
