London, Sep 29 : Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s female police bodyguard, who left a gun in a Starbucks toilet, has done it before. 

Vicky McPherson was axed last month after removing a belt holding the Glock 17 to relieve herself. 

Now, it has emerged that she did the same on a trip to the US with the ex-PM in May. A toilet attendant found her gun in a hotel loo in Orlando, Florida, The Sun reported. 

It was passed to a UK official who chased after Vicky, 35, to return it. Officers investigating the Starbucks incident have only just been told about the earlier gaffe — which was kept secret. 

A source said there is a clamour for Vicky, dubbed “Calamity Jane” by colleagues, to be axed.

When interviewer Jon Stewart, said to Blair: "Your relationship with George Bush seems inexplicable," Blair replied: "Here's something I find always goes down well, particularly back home: I like him."

Stewart retorted: "I would probably like him too, if he wasn't in charge of me."

"I'm sort of a bit nervous for it, really," he told the university's Yale Daily News. "I was never a star student, and I'm coming along mixing with a whole lot of people who I'm sure are a whole lot more clever and smarter than I am."

Washington, Sept 17 : Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair will be interviewed on America''s favourite fake news programme ‘The Daily Show With Jon Stewart’.

On Comedy Central channel''s flagship programme, he will be interviewed by Stewart, who was recently described by The New York Times as the most trusted man in the American media.

The show has a comic bent towards its reporting, and its producers have proved to be remarkably incisive jokers, keeping a close eye on the often ridiculous machinations of American politicians and the press corps that covers them.

The humorous programme has become so influential in the US that many viewers claim it is their first port of call for news coverage.

London, Sep 6 : Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair is the only senior Labour figure who could revive the party''s prospects at the general election, according to a ComRes poll.

The poll found that Blair would almost halve the Conservative party’s poll lead from 19 to 10 points; a disappointment to those Labour MPs who thought the former Prime Minister was a liability, The Independent reported.

Under Blair, Labour would win 31 per cent, reducing the projected Tory majority to just 20 seats.
