Now we've got former British Prime Minister Tony Blair caught secretly sneaking around in meetings with France's Emmanuel Macron, advising him on how to cut Britain off at the knees in its bid to exit the European Union. The London Telegraph reports:
Tony Blair has been accused of “unacceptable” behaviour after it emerged he has been briefing Emmanuel Macron on how to force Britain to stay in the EU.
The former Labour prime minister believes that if the EU stands its ground over the Brexit deal, Parliament will cave in and accept a customs union - which would keep Britain yoked to Brussels - or a second referendum that could cancel Brexit altogether.
Sources in Paris confirmed to The Telegraph that Mr Blair had been speaking to the French President about Brexit.
He is reported to have told Mr Macron to “hold firm” and wait for events to play out in London that end in Britain staying in the EU.
Breitbart has additional summary of what went down if you don't have a subscription.
Blair's sneakery is something he claims are just "meetings" and his staff told the Telegraph they "don't comment" on private meetings.
But obviously, what he's doing is having some sort of effect. The E.U. is now vowing to extort billions more from Britain if it doesn't accept its already expensive terms for exit, something that has tied Britain in knots in parliament as its wimpy prime minister, Theresa May, approaches them yet again with pretty much the same deal they rejected earlier. Way to go, Tony, tax your countrymen and hand it to the Eurocrats.

Blair’s “sneakery”? how about John Podesta’s?

11 March: Hobart Mercury Australia: Hillary Clinton’s campaign chair warns NZ about election hacking
The chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign says New Zealand should be ‘very worried’ about the prospect of election hacking. In a television interview with Newshub, John Podesta warned New Zealand’s election next year is at serious risk of a major cyber attack by Russia or China. During Ms Clinton’s presidential campaign, tens of thousands of Mr Podesta’s emails were hacked by the Russian government, with many believing the release of the emails was a major factor in Ms Clinton’s loss to Donald Trump.

1 March: New Zealand Herald: Former White House adviser John Podesta praises ‘superstar’ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern
Hillary Clinton’s former presidential campaign manager has labelled Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern a “superstar”.
John Podesta, who was the White House chief of staff to President Bill Clinton and a counsellor to President Barack Obama, told Newstalk ZB’s Heather Du Plessis-Allan that Ardern had given hope to social democrats all around the world...
He said the Democrats would be wise to take a leaf out of Ardern’s book...
Podesta also gave his views on United States President Donald Trump, saying he is “completely unfit and unqualified to be President of the United States”.
He said there is a huge amount of division within politics - and Trump was an example of that.
“You see it with the building of the wall. It’s largely a politics of fear and a politics of racism and add to that his misogyny and it’s a toxic mix.”...
Podesta said the real question was who could successfully prosecute a case against him.
However, when asked whether trying to prosecute Trump was the wrong strategy, he said the Democrats were in a tricky position, but they could not ignore criminal acts.
“The Democrats in the House do have some responsibility to make sure the justice system is functional.
“I don’t think people can look the other way from criminal acts.
“His national security adviser, his campaign chairman, his deputy campaign chairman, his senior policy adviser have all pleaded guilty to criminal acts.”...

The uniparty exists on both sides of The Pond.
“...Tony Blair has been accused of “unacceptable” behaviour..”
It used to be called treason which the Brits took a very dim view of via the gallows.
You beat me to it. I was going to say Blair was simply acting like a Senate Republican.
It was in fact Blair who removed Treason as a crime from the books. He is corrupt filth personified. Another one who was massively richer leaving office than when he entered it.
Air Force! wouldn’t you know.
Republican???? You mean like Ted Kennedy and Barrack Obama
