Memo to Cherie Blair
Cancel the Spanish translation, and don't bother with a promotional tour of your memoirs in Spain:
"The possibility that former British Prime Minister Tony Blair could become the EU’s first president generally produces an adverse reaction among Spaniards, with 45 percent against compared to 37 percent in favor". C/O El País
Mind you, would 37% of Britons want Mr Tony as Holy Roman Emperor?
Further, our Spanish friends may well have discovered the Errors of Socialism (thanks Friedrich Von..) in that
"Two out of three Spaniards believe Spain has “little or no influence” in the European Union, according to a new opinion poll that confirms public perceptions of their country’s waning influence in the world...Spain’s Socialist government finds itself increasingly isolated in Europe, following the election of right-of-center leaders in Germany, France and, most recently, Italy".
Ho ho.
