If at first, and then repeatedly, you fail to succeed

Cash in, cash in, and cash in again.
Tony Blair has agreed to advise the Egyptian president, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, who came to power in a military coup last year, as part of a programme funded by the United Arab Emirates that has promised to deliver huge "business opportunities" to those involved, the Guardian has learned.

Blather, rinse, repeat.

Time for Blair to get booked on Meet the Press and dance closely with Dave.

Good to know that 238 years after independence we can reunite in mutually profitable exploitation of others.

From the moment that Tony Blair accepted a million pounds from Ruprecht Murdoch for New Labour's first run at the British government, it was apparent that all his morals were in his wallet.

It shouldn't be at all surprising that he continues to prove that true.

I imagine Bush was offered the same deal but couldn't stay sober enough to stop giggling, "Heh heh, yer name is Sissy."
