Blair on Virgin

He can obviously afford J... and indeed at most of the airlines I worked for he would almost certainly be upgraded due to CIP/VIP status... its most likely, if he did fly Wcl that instructions were given NOT to upgrade... the spin doctors probably thought it good to be seen more as a man of the people.

Still don't know if he DID fly on us, but if he did and in Wcl then I'm certain that would be deliberate.

Late booking - no room in UC - took the whole PE deck - Protection officers there as well[8D]

Not trying to bring back the politics of the thread, but just to throw my 2 American cents into it. I've always liked Blair. Maybe I like him because of what I have to compare him to... Bush isn't exactly a model of what every American is like.

Actually I quite like Bush, ok his does make a few humerous gaffs but I think he is a decent man, standing up for what he believes is right and someone who has the bottle to follow things through, rather than a PM who acts more like a lapdog everyday, IMHO I would rather have a Bush than a Blair anyday.

Again just my opinion and sure others will disagree

We are talking about the same Bush right? President George W. Bush, from the US- the man that actually said he doesn't believe global warming is real.

Now I'm really starting an argument on the board, oh dear... sorry [:I]

Is this for real?

well he did. Cherie went BA first class.

So you think that a PM who is willing to risk the loss of our soldiers lives in Irag and Afganistan, support Israel, argue with France over the CAP, argue with Bush over global warming, support the human rights treaty and stem cell research, say Guatanamo should be closed, etc. is a lapdog? What an odd view you have ..,

Ok guys, you had your nice polite warning - it's now gone over the line.
Thread locked.
