And why these casual photos, the non-holiday photos, those really annoy me. I got one from a co-workers a few years ago, their two daughters on the train platform. I'm not sure if would be art-photog hubby was trying to be creative, or what, but it wasn't a good photo and it had nothing to do with Christmas. It would have been a pretty good photo for the two girls to put on a "we're running away from home" card, but that was about it. This Blair photo is just as bad. Couldn't they at least have included their children? And if they didn't want to, why a pic of them? I love Tony, but come on, who cares?

They have to prove that they are one of the "little people," by dressing down.

Agreed...I too am put off by these "Christmas" cards that have nothing to do with Christmas.  It baffles me also as to why the PM didn't include his children in the photo....just astonishing.

When I get cards from liberal friends that are of 'winter scenes' or a wolf in the snow, I just shake my head in amazement at the lengths that they are going to in order to avoid using the word "Christmas".  They are the same ones who greet me with "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas".

This would cause the Bliars a problem - since they have told the press not to photograph their children, even if they have been arrested, to maintain their privacy. To put their children on the card would therefore look odd.

I agree with many though - the card looks very tacky.
