I never had John Haran pegged as a master of irony. And yet how else is someone to take his statement that Tony Blair is owed his due by the people of this country? (July 2).

We've had the needless invasion of Iraq, the smearing of Dr David Kelly, cash for peerages, cash for passports, the money wasted on the Dome, record immigration, failing education and so on.
