Should Tony Blair be given a state funeral?

[Lucky Toma]

Whether you agree with his politics or not he was one of our finest post-war Prime Ministers who guided us to prosperous times and reclaimed our world standing.

Also oversaw a successful war and has continued his fine work since stepping down (and how many PMs graciously step down these days?) with his humanitarian work.

I know the thought might gall some but he is deserving of St Pauls and a public holiday when the sad day arrives in the distant future.

Yes. Preferably tomorrow. The bent, two faced, war mongering, cottaging, customs duty dodging, freeloading, smarmy, lying twat.

You really are on a clarkie marathon today though aren't you? ;)

I'm presuming all the Thatcher lovers will agree to this.

He was unfortunate to be saddled with a wife who looked like she'd been moulded from Aardman clay and yes he made mistakes (which PM doesnt make mistakes?) but he was overall a wonderful Prime Minister.

I personally thought he was alright as Prime Minister, even if things went a bit pear shaped towards the end.

November 5th, a big bonfire and we throw Thatcher and Blair on it.

It could actually be a big boost to the nation like the Olympics effect.

Mugs, T shirts, the lot.

We could get Cameron to fuck a pig as a preamble to the main event.

I like all this talk of State Funerals. It means a certain Lady is just that bit closer to popping her clogs.
