Tony 'Bono' Blair believes he is the Tony Blair. The real one is trapped in Downing Street for a third term. He's lost the leadership of the Labour party, his marriage is over, and he believes he has superhuman powers. He also talks to a teddy bear. He think his new job, CEO of a top company, will give him time to relaunch his political career. But he's hopelessly out of touch, sounding as though he's watched too many episodes of Friends. He's determined to fight back, and to find a MacDonald's so he can "reach the kids", who he's obsessed with. After all, you know, it's just a game of politics. But Tony's new job isn't all it seems.

About Ian D. Smith

Working class, conservative upbringing in the affluent, suburban, south Manchester / Stockport borders of Heaton Moor. Mum: teacher. Dad: sales office manager--steel.

Comprehensive school, Stockport tech, Sheffield Poly, BSc Civil Engineering. A couple of years in engineering, before retraining as a technical writer, Gloscat, Cheltenham.

MA Creative Writing, Goldsmith’s, University of London, 2001.

I'm a Guardian reading vegetarian and I'm against racism. I'm a member of the Labour Party. I owe everything to that party, every step of the way. My education might have been in portacabins, but I'm one of the lucky ones.

At 50, Lulu isn't a rehearsal, or a means to an end, it's a luxury. Ten, fifteen years ago, an opportunity like this was unthinkable, and I'm very lucky to be able to upload my novels.

I've lived in Scotland, London, Cheltenham and Reading, and I now live in Wiltshire. Thank you to my kind, patient, understanding, hard-working partner who puts up with me.
