ついに23名の下院議員が立ち上がった。「トニー・スカンク」ブレアの弾劾議案が提出されたのだ。むろん容疑はウソに次ぐウソで国家を戦争に引きずり込んだ犯罪である。実際に弾劾される見込みはゼロに等しいとはいえ、実に200年ぶりの快挙である。話題になるだけでも十分に価値がある。それにあのフレデリック・フォーサイスが議会外から応援している。彼はやっぱり本当は良心的な人物なのであった。
本日「労働党員募集」のパンフが放り込まれていたので、申込書に「労働党は改名してBritish Neo Conservative Party(英国ネオコンサーバティブ党)としたらどうか?」と書いて送ってやった。

Celebrities join bid to impeach PM
Celebrity opponents of the Iraq war have joined MPs to launch a bid to impeach Prime Minister Tony Blair for misleading Parliament over Saddam Hussein's supposed weapons of mass destruction.
Some 23 MPs have signed a motion calling for a special Commons committee to be set up to investigate Mr Blair's actions in the run-up to war and decide if there are grounds to impeach him for "gross misconduct".
It is the first attempt to impeach a British Prime Minister for almost 200 years.
Authors Frederick Forsyth and Iain Banks, actors Susan Wooldridge, Andy de la Tour and Corin Redgrave and musician Brian Eno came to Westminster to show their support, along with Reg and Sally Keys, whose soldier son Thomas, 20, died in Iraq last year.
The impeachment motion appeared on the Commons order paper today, and one of its tablers, Scottish National Party leader Alex Salmond, said he was hopeful Speaker Michael Martin would allow time for a debate on the floor of the House.
"This is no gimmick," he said. "No Speaker in history has turned down a motion on impeachment for debate.
"My estimation is that, given there are 23 names on the order paper, it will depend entirely on the breadth and substance of support.
"The Speaker is an extremely fair man and I have got every confidence in his ability to judge that."
Mr Salmond's claim of broad support was undermined by the fact that no Labour MPs are among the signatories, who include Boris Johnson, Tory former ministers Douglas Hogg and John Gummer, Plaid Cymru parliamentary leader Elfyn Llwyd, the Lib Dems' ex-Labour defector Paul Marsden and Respect MP George Galloway, who was thrown out of Labour for his comments on Iraq.
