Tony Blair - My Fake Diary

Thursday, 19 July 2012

I was interviewed on CNN in the United States by Christine Amanpour.

The first question and my answer was:
Q: Is there more public office in view for Tony Blair? Everybody's talking about how you're positioning yourself to make a comeback.

A: I'm not really. It's just that people ask you the question in a way that says, you know, rule it out, and I kind of think, well, why should I? But that's not the same as planning to do it. You know what I mean?
So I - I'm a public service person. You know, I would have liked staying as prime minister. I'm enjoying the life I've got and doing lots of things and you know, I kind of let the future take care of itself.

Brilliant non-committal answer I thought - I'm still coming back!
