Re: Ségolène Royal chosen as Socialist candidate (none / 0)
Quite agree on the "Blair Babes", some of whom were as old as, or older than, Blair. (If you consider "babe" as a reference to youthful new arrival, of course, and not the pr0n variety...)

Hm. My own impression was not that: my impression was that 'Bliar Babes' were selected for deference to Tony, those who dominated were more fans of Tony than politicians with own ambition and potential.

Yes. So either "babies" in the sense dominated by a father-figure, or "babes" in the pr0n sense, ie submissive to men and Blair in particular.

"Pr0n"? Something to do with porn?

Yes, it's a standard Internet deformation of porn, presumably to get it past spam filters.
