Every Little Helps

The Middle East Peace Envoy at work:

Tony Blair has been in talks with Tesco about helping them open supermarkets in the Middle East - allegedly in return for up to £1million.

It is believed the discussions between the former Prime Minister, now a peace envoy to the region, and the supermarket chain, whose slogan is 'Every little helps', ended after the two sides failed to agree terms.

The disclosure could further damage Mr Blair's hopes of becoming the first President of Europe, as critics will seize on it as evidence that he is as interested in making money as he is in reviving his career as a statesman.

According to one source, Mr Blair's proposed role for Tesco would simply have been to act as a figurehead for their drive to break into the Middle East market.

  1. Doesnt Tesco have a connexion to Dame Shirley Porter, who became destitute after a ruling against her by the Local Government Auditor. And I believe she was so destitute she went to live in the Middle East (Syria, Saudi Arabia, Jordan.......I forget which one) where she lived off the charity of her destitute family.
    Noting the number of cars in the Tesco car park, Tesco seems to be doing rather well.
