The Prospect article suggests she's doing it as a favour to Tony Blair muriel_volestrangler Wednesday #15

Good grief Tony Blair favor? Nanjeanne Wednesday #22

It's a measure of the awfulness of the "Board of Peace" that Blair may be the least corrupt and RW person on it muriel_volestrangler Wednesday #28
