Blair and Clinton plan stadium rock world tour

British Prime Minister Tony Blair is on the verge of quitting his job as head of the UK in order to form a band with close pal Bill Clinton, a close colleague has revealed. The aide, who asked not to be named and will be referred to as Mr Brown in this article, claimed that the Prime Minister has been acting strangely since his 50th birthday last week.

Mr Blair is reported to have been sitting up all night strumming on his guitar and talking to Mr Clinton on the phone. A saxophone could be heard wailing over the line. It is understood that both men have been in contact other members of “Ugly Rumours”, the band Blair performed in as a student back in the 1970s.

Mr Brown stated: “The Prime Minister has informed me that he and Clinton both feel that they conquered the world of politics, so a fresh challenge is needed. Both men are born performers and so it seems a logical step to re-form Ugly Rumours and become the greatest pop group of all time.”
