I am going to get pelters for this but I think that Blair looks fine for a man d'une certaine age.

OK for 67.

The moneychangers have fled from their high seats in the temple of our civilization. We now restore that temple to the ancient truths. The measure of the restoration lies in the extent to which we apply values more noble than mere monetary profit.

Indeed, let's be our best, comrades. Even in those unguarded moments.

Presumably that Blair mugshot is the reason why William Hartnell was trending briefly on Twitter this afternoon

Christ, that picture makes me feel old. It only seems like yesterday when a fresh-faced young Blair was showing off his footballing skills at a pre-GE1997 event. It's a relatively random memory, but it helped make the likes of Hurd, Heseltine, Major etc. even more faded and decrepit in comparison.

My immediate reaction was that he had a slightly alarming resemblance to the bad guy from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade mid death sequence when he suddenly starts aging rapidly and his hair grows like crazy...

I was thinking of Michael Gambon in Layer Cake.
