Tony Blair

That's a shame. I like starlings, beautiful irridescent feathers.

The Norway dragon has a special arrangement with the EU, it will only grill and eat a percentage of Brussels bureaucrats in return for keeping the buildings free of starlings.
It's name is Eric.

Sorry, I meant European. Norway isn't EU, is it?

Most dragons are EU now, aren't, they, Norwegian or Romanian?

Ah thanks Jalima - let's hear it for dragons

Was the dragon English or was it a filthy foreign dragon living on state benefits in social housing, laying eggs willy nilly and refusing to integrate with native dragons or even learn the language?
I am shocked by your post absent - did you not know that dragons are an endangered species and one of the remaining red dragons lives in a rent-free cave at Dinas Emrys supping mead provided on the NHS, nurturing its eggs?
And expects you to speak its language

Riverwalk is also joking dd

Are you talking to me dd? Because that sounds like one of your typical deliberately rude posts that you go in for from time to time.....I have to wonder why, just having a bad day perhaps? other posters here know absent and also 'get' her jokey comment,
Such as Riverwalk for a start.You haven't been on GN all that long so thought the comment was a serious one maybe or didn't see what she was really saying with her comment.No doubt absent will be along shortly.

Has she lost her 'voice'?

Unfortunately, one does get to 'know' certain posters. I thought you'd decided that news affects your mental health. Or has the coven been having its AGM?

A filthy foreign one I'd say absent

dd from being on GN you get to know other posters a bit, and absent is in no way a racist nor makes any racist comments.It was so obvious that she was joking ( irony)
In her comments about 'dragons' but you obviously don't get it.

Pleased to see "don't play the man but play the argument" is dead and buried in GN.

Sometimes it really is worth listening to the message and ignore the messenger.

Are you in telepathic communication with absent roses?

Blair making a bit of a comeback is a gift for the cartoonists.

What absent means dd is that she is joking .....and hoped we would all see the joke.

Does this vile creature actually think anyone believes a word he says ? He really cannot pull anyone up on mistruths, pot, kettle, black spring to mind.

You're right LuckyG We have free speech - but only to an extent.

Yes, Blair has a right to air his opinions. But, his mental processes and manner mirrors that of Hilary Clinton.

We know Blair and Branson are working hard for a second referendum. It will be interesting to find out which channel and how much air time they are given.

There's a Hebridean Black in Harry Potter, but the other nine are not British. No English ones.

PS. It was reported in the Sun, which might give you an idea of his audience.

Strangely enough, it was reported in the Independent (see link) on 22nd April, which is the day before St George's Day. No, he didn't touch on whether it was fact or not. He was trying to introduce a nationalistic tone into his speech, but was careful to say that he didn't believe it himself. It's probable it was written by Alistair Campbell.

European dragons are legendary creatures in folklore and mythology among the overlapping cultures of Europe. ... Though a winged creature, the dragon is generally to be found in its underground lair, a cave that identifies it as an ancient creature of earth.

It escaped to the Welsh mountains, breathing brexit fire and waiting to take on the might of St Anthony and his sword.

Sorry, losing the plot now, time to go.

What's that supposed to mean, absent? on the face of it, it sounds racist.

Apparently he did dj. www.independent.co.uk/incoming/cry-god-for-tony-blair-england-and-the-sun-5570832.html

However, he then went on to say why the 'some' were wrong.

Was the dragon English or was it a filthy foreign dragon living on state benefits in social housing, laying eggs willy nilly and refusing to integrate with native dragons or even learn the language?

But he did say to protect England.
