Tony Blair was taken to hospital last night to receive treatment for a slipped disc suffered while working out in the gym in his Downing Street flat.

That’s very convenient for a typical bloody northern “socialist”: Blair goes on incapacity benefit and Brown takes over. Blair carries on living in subsidised social housing and all them bairns that him and his wife have been having live off state handouts. Our taxes’ll probably pay for him to have a special reclining chair and Sky so he can watch Newcastle play on TV—on the days when they haven’t got room for his wheelchair in the disabled area at the ground itself.
