Blair For World Bank. But What About The Perks?

.

Outgoing Prime Minister Tony Blair is a contender for the job of president of the World Bank, according to one of America's most respected economists.

The news comes after the board of the World Bank announced its president Paul Wolfowitz would resign at the end of next month.

My sources tell me that since Wolfowitz and the recent scandal over nepotism, Blair might might be somewhat reluctant as the missus needs to earn a few quid, and couple this with the removal of some fringe benefits, Blair would have to give the matter some consideration.
