Blair, who has openly declared his admiration for Sarkozy, describing him as a "strong leader" who could help steer Europe along a clearer path, has urged politicians on the French left to modernise. [...] "I am a centre-left politician," he said. "In the United States, I would be a Democrat. In the United Kingdom, I am part of Labour. "In France, I would be ... probably in government," he said to laughter and applause, before adding: "No, I'm joking. I would be in the Socialist Party, alongside those who are committed to transforming it."

Funny that, this kind of characters who loudly claim they want to transform the Socialist party are so busy weakening it and boosting the opposite party (paging Dr Kouchner and the cohort of short-sighted opportunists) you'd almost think their aim is actually to destroy the progressive parties; in order to save them no doubt...
A Democrat in the US? A Socialist in France? Gee Tony, you spent so much time sucking up to Bush and Sarkozy, you almost fooled me on that one... Europeans think a hundred miles is a long way. Americans think a hundred years is a long time.
