During the 2005 UK General Election and the 2006 local elections, we asked you to register a highly visible and damaging protest vote against Tony Blair, his style of government, his right-wing leanings, and his lies about the 'war' on terror and Iraq.

Ask Tony Blair a Question

As Perfect.co.uk points out, Labour chose today to get all touchy-feely on Teh Interwebs. Their timing couldn't have been better.

They have invited us - the great unwashed - to put a question to Tony via this page or by texting 84402.

We would like you all to ask the following question:

Why don't you f*ck off and apologise for Iraq you tw*t?

That is all. You may go about your business as soon as this task is completed.

UPDATE: Oh, go on. If you want to be boring, you could ask this instead:

When will the Prime Minister publish full and comprehensive details of the advice he was given by the Attorney General regarding the legality of the invasion of Iraq in 2003?

Done.

The non-sweary version, I'm afraid.

Now, do I link to here from the Alan Milburn blog?

I basically posted that, but without the swearing.
Except I couldn't resist putting "ou utter, utter cunt" at the end.

I went for the sweary version - couldn't resist...

I particularly liked the way that afterwards it redirected me to the Labour homepage, along with a story about how the Tories are no longer backing ID cards, thus making voting for them ever so slightly more appealing. Especially as Labour are also trying to harvest email addresses via this question thing, making it easier to track us down and inject propaganda into our inboxes.

Bunch of abject bastards.

I'll get round to the e-mail tomorrow - they'll have probably filtered the words f**k, tw*t and Iraq by then, which'll really screw with Alistair Campbell.

In the meantime, I'm happy to add my own humble efforts to Backing Blair, which you'll find at http://www.talkpolitics.co.uk - you're going to have to tell me, btw, just how you got that spiffy 3d-cube/tile effect on the posters - photoshop filter or hard work and talent?

I asked:

Operation Ore said two ex cabinet ministers and a very senior labour party figure paid for accessing child pornography.

Will you name them?
Have they had any legal action taken against them?

"I note that the contentious ID card Bill passed through parliament on the same day Buckingham Palace announced the Prince of Wales's forthcoming marriage. A happy coincidence, or a good day to bury bad news?"

Only tangentially related but thought I'd mention this image I spotted: http://libdemmike.blogspot.com/2005/02/labour-pledge-cards-first-draft.html

With regards to publishing the Attorney General's advice, the Parliamentary vote on it is at:

http://publicwhip.org.uk/division.php?date=2004-03-09&number=80We have to remind ourselves that Parliament is not like any old committee. When it gets a majority, what it says goes. No ifs, buts, excuses.

We have the names of the 285 MPs who decided we should NOT see the attorney general's advice. They can tell us why.
