Where's Blair?

Michael Crick is following up Tuesday's BBC Newsnight programme, which reported on The man who isn't there.

Apparently Tony Blair is persona non grata on his own Party's election literature!

There are rumblings afoot, and even a few questions being asked. But how long is Tony for this world?

Should we beware the 'Major scenario', i.e. the leader of your Party becomes a liability so has to be made to step aside, but this is done in plenty of time for the new leader to settle in to the public consciousness before the next General Election - allowing the Party to continue on regardless, under the delusion that it was 'just' the most extreme act(s and intentions) of their former leader that they have to avoid / disown?
