Really this ought to be saved for Halloween, but for those leftists who complacently argue that our leaders need to be challenged more forcefully, this interview with former PM Tony Blair should make them a bit a more careful about what they wish for and a bit more grateful for the cosy, softly softly stlye, of Andrew Marr et al. It turns out though that Blair's biographer (obviously a fan of the horror genre) John Rentoul is evidently made of sterner stuff than the rest of us as he has written a glowing piece for the Independent extolling Blair's performance. Incidentally I strongly recommend readers to also have a look at Rentoul's impassioned and moving reaction to Tony Blair's resignation in 2007.
The video can't be embedded (as far as I can tell), but here is the link again. And here's a screenshot of what's in store:

Hi Alex, the link’s not working.

Yes someone alerted me to this - it was correct before but I think the URL on Al Aribiya changed. It’s fixed now.
