The Yanks have discovered irony: Blair and Yale

This is not just irony; this is savage on a Jonathon Swift baby-eater scale. The tragedy is that - to borrow a phrase likely to be in Mr Blair’s seminar - they know not what they do.

I think that Mr Blair is the greatest liar and sender of our armed forces into action under false pretences that this country has seen for perhaps 50 years.

And Yale University invite him to teach about “channelling religious values towards reconciliation not polarisation”.

Ye gods.

It says all we need to know that the photo on the right (courtesy Yale Press Office) is labelled “Tony Blair PR”. Yep, right in the filename; that about sums him up.

Anyway - for what it’s worth (if anything) Yale is now permanently on my “institutions not to touch with a bargepole” list.
