Blair Out as President of Europe
Thank God the European countries have finally seen sense:
Hours after Gordon Brown
delivered his strongest statement of support for Blair – disclosing
that he had spoken to him earlier this week – British sources indicated
that the former prime minister was unlikely to assume the high-profile
job."It would be right to describe Tony's chances as fading," one British source said. "Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel are not terribly enthusiastic. Silvio Berlusconi remains his strongest backer."
