This is a topic which has annoyed me in a variety of ways.
- People keep saying that we should not pry into Mr Blunkett's private life, however if he is abusing his minesterial position then it is important for the public to know that.
- Tony Blair, at the end of the day, is the man who will decide whether Mr Blunkett keeps his job. However, dear Tony has already stated that he believes Blunkett, even without the enquiry. This is not going to lead to a fair judgment on Blair's part.
- The fact the Blunkett has a child by this lady is actually irellevant.
- The lady now wished to be kept out of the press, and not go to court, yet she's willing to drag Blunkett's name through the dirt. This is wrong. If you can't take it, lady, don't try to give it out.
- There is one good thing that may come of this though. The fathers for justace group will have a high-ranking supporter, who will be able to empathise with those poor men who are denied access to their children. (NB. If there is good reason to keep the father away, so be it. But it needs to be a damned good reason!)

I think you only support FFJ cos they like dressing up :-)
Blunkett will have to go if he used his influence to get the passport approved quicker, but I suspect that they won't be able to prove this so he'll stay.
I don't think that his private life should affect his public life in general though.
