Him and the rest. So many getting away with scabbing off the public.

A daily Mail article cleverly designed to suck in the gullible.Needs to be broken down to get the real news.Only then do you realize its not news at all.


Firstly the 16k a week for security.Yes that bit is true but is no different to the protection afforded every former Prime Minister.On a pro-rata scale Margret Thatchers was even more.In other words standard practice.And if you do the maths you'll realise that the 16k a week works out at about 750k over the four year period.

As for the rest of it.Where does it actually tell you that the taxpayer footed all that-IT DOESN'T-because we didn't.

A classic example of the kind of guff that fools millions.

His company does of course.I'm afraid you are amply demonstrating the power of the Daily Mail.Don't you question anything or do you badly want to believe what they are implying.The 16k a week figure and the 57m figure are not connected.

But after your "Tony Blair Leech" headline you tell where it says the taxpayer funds Blair to the tune of 57m.

Ah,but that's an entirely different thing and an opinion I'm not unsympathetic with.

I was going to read this thread - and then saw it related to an article from the Daily Mail - so didn't bother!
