Tony Blair goes on a fact-finding visit to Israel. While he is on a tour of Jerusalem he suffers a heart attack and dies.

The undertaker tells the British Diplomats accompanying him, “You can have him shipped home for £50,000 or you can bury him here in the Holy Land for just £100.”

The British Diplomats go into a corner and discuss for a few minutes. They come back to the undertaker and tell him they want Blair shipped home.

The undertaker is puzzled and asks, “Why would you spend £50,000 to ship him home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only £100?”

The Diplomats replied,
“Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead.

We just can't take the risk.”

Tory leadership: Leadsom says CV criticism is 'ridiculous'

From BBC UK the section UK Politics

Andrea Leadsom
Conservative leadership hopeful Andrea Leadsom has dismissed "ridiculous" criticism of her pre-politics career, saying her "incredibly varied" CV is "all absolutely true".
The energy minister rejected claims she had embellished details of her 25-year career in finance.
She also said she was "disappointed" at attempts by opponents to block her from the final ballot.
"I just want an honourable campaign," she told the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg.

Mrs Leadsom is up against Home Secretary Theresa May and Justice Secretary Michael Gove, with the result on 9 September. One of them will be forced to drop out when the result is announced later, with the remaining two to go forward to a vote of the membership.

The winner will become Britain's next prime minister.

Mrs Leadsom's team has published a summary of her CV, after it was claimed - including by a former colleague - that her previous jobs were not as she had described them.
"I have not changed my CV," she told the BBC as MPs voted in their final ballot of the leadership contest.

Responding to some of the questions raised, she said she had been managing director - not marketing director - of a start-up fund management company and that she had been "very clear" on what a separate job as a senior investment officer had involved, adding that she was "not a funds manager".

There have been claims of underhand tactics in the Tory leadership contest, after it emerged that Justice Secretary Michael Gove's campaign manager had appealed to Mrs May's supporters to unite in an effort to block Mrs Leadsom's chances of getting on to the final ballot.

Nick Boles sent a text message to a number of MPs who support Mrs May, urging them to switch sides and back Mr Gove. He said that although he thought it "overwhelmingly likely" the home secretary would win the contest, he was "seriously frightened about the risk" of Mrs Leadsom ending up in the run-off.

"What if Theresa stumbles? Are we really confident that the membership won't vote for a fresh face who shares their attitudes about much of modern life, like they did with IDS?" he wrote, referring to Iain Duncan Smith's election as Conservative leader in 2001. He later issued an apology and said Mr Gove had been unaware of the plot.

Mrs May's campaign said MPs who wanted her as prime minister had to vote for her, adding: "There can be no space for tactical voting - this contest is simply too important to be playing games about who goes forward to the membership."
In her BBC interview, Mrs Leadsom said: "I am really not interested in other people's tactics, or whatever. I just want an honourable campaign."

She said Mr Boles's text message did not bother her, because it was "not honourable", adding: "One of the things I would hope to do as prime minister is to change that from the top by setting an example."

Setting out her vision for the country in a speech earlier, Mrs Leadsom said she wanted to "spread prosperity to every corner of our country".

The leadership ballot takes place between 09:00 and 16:00 BST, with the results to be announced shortly afterwards.

A growing group of Conservative MPs are calling for the contest to be accelerated with a result before 9 September.

Analysis
By John Pienaar, deputy political editor

By tonight, there'll be two contenders left.
Theresa May's the bookies' favourite. She's been called a "bloody difficult woman" but also good at her job. That's an insult she can live with, but they'll likely get harsher.
Michael Gove's hindered by his new-found notoriety as the best-mannered assassin at Westminster, after backing, then burying, Boris Johnson's dreams.

Last night, it emerged Mr Gove's campaign manager had appealed - unsubtly - to Theresa May's supporters to unite in an effort to kill off his fellow EU Leave campaigner Andrea Leadsom's chances. He later apologised.

Devoid of top-level political experience, she's already having to overcome doubts about her claim to have been a financial high-flyer.

A former colleague at investment firm Invesco Perpetual, Robert Stephens, has said "she didn't manage any teams, large or small and certainly did not manage any funds." That was after a friendly MP, Bernard Jenkin, spoke of her history managing "hundreds of people and billions of pounds".

A CV listing the post Financial Institutions Director at Barclays later added the word "deputy". An innocent error, according to Team Leadsom - and the MP who'd boasted of her high-powered background had merely been "bigging her up".

Maybe so, but the contest will be merciless. The fight for the top job in politics always is.

Former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith - who is supporting Mrs Leadsom - warned colleagues against spending "the whole time stabbing each other in the back".
At a hustings on Wednesday night, Mrs Leadsom restated that she would not publish her tax return - unlike Mrs May and Mr Gove - unless she made the final two, saying she did not want to set a "precedent". But Mrs Leadsom told MPs they could come to see a summary of her tax affairs personally if they wanted to.

Despite Mrs May's clear lead in Tuesday's first round vote - she got 165 votes of 329 cast - the home secretary has said she does not want the contest to be a "coronation".

The leadership contest has been sparked by David Cameron's decision to step down as leader and prime minister after the UK voted by 52% to 48% to leave the EU.

My comment:

Gove seems to be playing 'dirty tricks', doesn't he?

There was his wife's e-mail which 'escaped' into the media - a 'mistake' that could have been purposefully created to 'accidentally' work well on his behalf.

And now his latest use of e-mails to supporters to influence their voting in a way which disadvantages Leadsom are not going to win him many admirers.

If Leadsom does win, she isn't going to give him a cabinet job now for sure. He is a spin bowler who doesn't play a straight bat.

Gove is turning out to be a first class shit!

How on earth can he change spots like that?

Who does he think will employ him after the event? May?? lolol, maybe as a bog attendant.

The CV is clearly not true. In fact her team have amended her CV today to correct the faults. It is the sort of CV that contains huge exaggerations in order to get a senior job. In the commercial world, it happens a lot. For the office of PM, it is unacceptable.

There are very specific types of experience that she has claimed which are totally untrue. In particular, she claims to have run teams of people numbering 30 or more. Her previous employers have said that she did not manage anyone at all.

Her finance experience if almost non existent. She had only been qualified as a finance worker three months before she left her job. She claims to have been head hunted as a finance expert when in fact she joined a relative's company as a marketing person. Almost every aspect of her CV contains false information.

Haze,

How similar is that cv to yours/

I thought it was typical of a tory cabinet minister.

Yes a bit like Mays and her associates claiming that because she's been
home secretary for six years she must have been successful...


Wrong!...If you think that ever increasing immigration and open door
borders where immigrants can walk through a tunnel over 23 miles long
or sail across the channel, and still fail to deport them....I DON'T!!!..

SHE'S BEEN AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER.....

Yes, but she is Teflon coated. (very handy)

I like the 2016 item.

That's a good one :-)

Looks like the remain pr team have been hard at work.

Oh piss off, Jean-Claude Juncker.
