Vandal carves obscene Blair attack on Despatch Box


AN obscene message about Tony Blair has been found carved into the Despatch Box table in the House of Commons’ debating chamber.

Shocked officials discovered the message, which read "Tony Blair is a c***", on the wooden table where the Prime Minister stands to address MPs. An investigation is under way into how the vandalism happened.

Visitors to the House of Commons are escorted by guides and are allowed to touch the historic Despatch Box. But rumours that it was an "inside job" by a Westminster worker have been reported.

Derek Conway, chairman of the works committee which will look into the incident, said: "I would hate to think it was someone working in the Palace."

Following the incident, Sir Michael Cummins, the Serjeant at Arms, said visitors would no longer be allowed up to the Despatch Box to lean on it as the Prime Minister does.

i blame gordon brown.

 

Well if someone is given the freedom to do that then it would be pretty easy to hide a small bomb under the front bench seats?

 

Ive axctually worked at the houses of parliament. At no time was I or my van checked out. Wewere told that if anyone asked us about checks to say they had been done and we had briefed about security as well.

Nope, but it shows how easily it could be.

Whatever happened to freedom of speech??

I thought you couldn't go wrong telling the truth??

The bloke who did it should be knighted.

They've narrowed the suspects down to 60 million people

 

give the person that did it a knighthood

 

It had the passage 'OBL says Hi!' carved just above it and they are still trying to figure out what OBL means...

 

I'm with PC - Arise Sir Gordon

Apart from which this statement is untre as a c*** is useful ..........

 

I wonder if it gets counted in the governments crime figures?

 

Most people want to f*ck a ****. Who would to Blair. And Cherie is not a good answer. She's rather ropy aswell. A false grin that big and even John Holmes would have trouble filling it with Rocco already there.....
