Cost of Protecting Tony Blair is a State Secret

Why should we continue to pay to protect Tony Blair from the vengeance of those he has wronged?

In a recent response to a Freedom of Information Request the Home Office have refused to confirm or deny that they spend a single penny of their budget on protecting Tony Blair.

This is on the grounds that publishing the real numbers would jeopardise national security.

The fact that they publish the figures for policing Julian Assange at the Ecuadorian Embassy goes to show that there is one standard for those who believe in transparency and another for Tony Blair.

I suspect that the entire Royal Family costs less and pays more tax:
