Tony Blair's daughter in suicide bid

[Mandy]

Do I smell a whiff of "inconsistency" here ...

Here we are defending Blair's right to a privat family life, but on another thread :
"George to be a dad again" we are detailing private details on George's personal affairs.

e.g. Name of partners, age of partners, their looks, details of nationality, their relationship status etc.

Did anyone care how George's partners OR children will feel about that story, e.g. what we call, or how we describe, their mothers / step-mothers (none of whome are in the public eye, so should expect privacy) ?

Good morning Eefanincan, here are your fresh replies !

1) The issue here is not how children eventually turn out, but the character of the parent figure, and how the parent figure interacts with his/her family. Does he have a normal stable relationship with his family, or does he cheat on his wife or beats his children ? These will be a truer reflection as to what a person is really like as compared to the carefully managed public image.

2) I was not implying that it did, but if something like this happens (often through no fault of the parents), it will undoubtedly affect the parents emotionally, and which may affect their work and/or judgements. Insecure Blair probably thought that many people would think it would reflected badly on him, and so ordered a news blackout on the grounds of national security, claiming that media interest in this story would distract him from running the country, but the result is that the Public have been denied knowing about something that will certainly be detracting the PM anyway. Compliant media is something associated with totalitarian countries, and this undermine the freedom of our Press.

3) Sorry I don’t follow this point at all, please restate what you are trying to say.

4) Ah you are not familiar with the dirty world of power politics and covert operations ! Certain countries secret agencies specialize in not only uncovering sordid secrets in order to apply pressure/blackmail, they actually actively set people up and use evidence obtained of say homosexuality or corruption or sexual perversion etc to blackmail people. A little research will show this is not at all far fetched.

Indeed many people still believe that Bush had something over Blair, which would explain his bizarre loyalty to the Necon agenda in direct opposition to the interests of the UK, as many of his advisors have told him it is

It's not muck-raking - it's simple human-interest. If there was any muck to be raked I'm sure one of Murdoch's rags would have been on the case years ago.

Did you after reading the story feel that you'd learned something about Galloway that was seedy or reprehensible? I got the impression from it that he's a bit of an old lothario - and believing what I do about Galloway, that won't bother him in the slightest.

The Bush rape story is very interesting. There is no smoke without fire. And the suicide is very far fetched.

well there's no way of finding out if it was fact if the case doesn't go to court.

Just the fact that the case has been accepted by the court suggests that there was enough evidence for a prosecution. I can't see many lawyers taking it on without thinking there was a good chance - but then, who knows...

Here's their news site. I had to check into them to see if they were on the up and up, but it still doesn't change the fact that if it was an authentic news story with any credence, the world would be swaying off its axis at the though he was both a rapist and murderer. .....but then again he is a mass murderer but the rapist part is what I've trouble with.

There is a strange parallel in both these stories about Bush &v Blair not being reported by the mainstream media. I tried to start threads on two major UK news forums about the Blair story, and both were pulled after mere minutes ! Positively a very freaky experience !!

Anyhow going back to the Bush story, I found this;

Here’s another link to an essay on the story that summarises my astonishment at the lack of media coverage;
