News has come in that Tony Blair has finally converted to Catholicism. A move which will mean he has to stop using contraception. I’m sure he’ll be fine though – as long as he pulls out of Cherie quicker than he pulled out of Iraq.
A topical quip
I like it, would be better as a "and finally" piece I think. Potential there needs recording immediately. I just tweaked it a bit hope you don't mind 
"And Finally, News that Tony Blair has converted to Catholicism. A move which will mean he can no longer use contraception. I’m sure he’ll be fine though (under breath.)– as long as he pulls out of Cherie quicker than he pulled out of Iraq.
Thats all from us at the six o'clock news team. Goodnight. "
Still...

I think he was a very brave man to go in there in the first place.
It's a good idea you have their, Gavin. It's a shame that the effect of the joke will only be relevant for a short while, but that's topical humour for you!
I'm quite happy that after months of telling myself I can't write anything topical and funny, that I've gone and done it!
good one Winterlight.. you are certainly in the rhythm at the moment.
Always potential for humour with Catholicism and the Blairs. I think Tony met Pope Bendy dick in the summer.
