President Blair will have a bigger jet ordered, and maybe a bigger country retreat.

I should think he'd find it hard to better the Royal collection of

palaces,

feudal fiefdoms, RAF transport squadron, Royal train etcetc.

No Royal train, no Royal plane, yacht sits in Leith as a tourist attraction, no more to sail the waves.

I take it you didn't see Blair's recent attempt to get himself "BlairForce One"? Fancier and more expensive than ANY Royal transport of previous days - till the Chancellor of the Exchequer nixed it!
