`EXPLOSIVE': Although former Downing Street spin doctor Lance Price pulls punches in his soon-to-be-published memoirs, the book contains some saucy details as well

THE GUARDIAN , LONDON
Tuesday, Sep 20, 2005,Page 6

Advertising It's not exactly former US president Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office. But on Sunday revelations of a romp on the sofa in British Prime Minister Tony Blair's inner sanctum were among some of the secrets divulged in the soon-to-be-published memoirs of the Downing Street spin doctor Lance Price.
Billed "explosive," The Spin Doctor's Diary is light on the killer punches that Price might have landed on bodies in the Blair administration. Instead, it seems likely there will just be a great many blushes.

Price, 47, recounts how on the night of Labour's second election landslide victory two Labour officials had sex on Blair's sofa, while the rest of the Cabinet celebrated down the corridor. Even more bizarrely, he claims he interrupted their frolics while looking for sun cream, having fallen asleep on Brighton beach in the midday sun.

The man who was the prime minister's deputy communications adviser for most of Labour's first term points out some Blair vanity, saying that the premier does not like being seen wearing his glasses.

4. i have read that myself
I have nothing against someone practicing wicca or new age, it is very popular in the UK because of their roots. I far prefer it to Christian right madness.

I don't know how bad or good Cherie is, I had read quite awhile back that she detests the Bush's for the theft of the 2000 election.

It's sad, I once like the Blairs, when Clinton was in power.

a Poodle to the oil industry whores and pimps.
