The land of Tabloid newspaper, and the center of gossip. And today, it is proved that even the serious political event can turn into soap opera. Tony has to go, we all know that, and his legacy (if you can call it legacy anyway) is ending with a quite controversial note. And Cherie, his lovely wife, is certainly not helping at this point of his career. She has been allegedly reported saying "that is a lie" when Mr. Brown was giving his tribute to Tony. Well, we don't know if she really said, it would surprise a bit if she did, even though we know by now she is a very outspoken first lady who won't just sit around as supporting wife and mother for the kids. But a lawyer by training, that is a bit losing grip?
"You know the biggest newspaper (by circulation) in this country is those Tabloid newspaper", when my friend told me this a month ago, I was quite surprised. Well, I guess we all like gossip news these days, some pressue in our own life is taken away by talking lightheartedly about the "celebrity" gossip, after all, mocking other people is always easier than solving our own issues!
Is this why (at least partly) the tabloid survives and thrives? After all, those "stars" are the lucky birds, for a fine balance, they should take some heat as well!

As Mr Blair said - at least he knows that Cherie is not going to run off with the bloke next door.
Blair has been a great Prime Minister. Modern Britain has never been more prosperous.
His fatal flaw was getting too close to GW Bush; and not having the humility to admit that he went too far.
His farewell speech at the Labour Party was a master class in public speaking. Only he and Clinton can hold an audience like that.
When Blair is gone he will be missed. He is a class act and there are few like him in politics.
