Foreigners to the rescue

News comments:
Tony Blair. Remember him? He works for the Libya government and it is no surprise BP is going to be bailed out (financialtimes) by these terrorists-turned-thoroughgoods. Just like most things British, we have to rely on foreigners to sort out our problems. Take a lunchtime snack. I have to send my driver from Mayfair to Ottolenghi. It is miles away but alas the cheap pret-eat lunches around here are truly awful and nobody wants a flatulent Hedgie chundering over the pavements in Mayfair.

I noted that 200+ people died in the Congo (bbc) after an oil tanker blew up. I wonder if a $20 billion fund is going to be set up? Of course not because Africans are not real people.

Ottolenghi has the best prepared food, but the best coffee in London is still in Mayfair at the Wolseley.
