THE news that Blair or “Sir Tony” is acting to facilitate some sort of relationship for Starmer with Netanyhu beggars belief. This multi-millionaire charlatan was obviously a complete failure as Middle East “peace” envoy and clearly can’t be trusted, other than by autocrats keen on continuing to suppress their own populations who are enraged at the carnage being visited on the Palestinian people.

The credit for peace in Northern Ireland should go to John Major, Mo Mowlam (now airbrushed from history) and of course Bill Clinton. It might cramp Blair’s grotesque lifestyle, but maybe Starmer should elevate him to the Lords and he and Lord Cameron can face off there. He’d be back in the limelight which he clearly craves – the only uncertainty would be an appropriate title – Lord Blair of Piety and Endless Bloodbath? I am sure your readers could come up with something appropriate.
For myself, I only know that the God he follows cannot possibly be the one whose only begotten son said of children “to them belongs the Kingdom of Heaven”.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
