Russian ex-president snuffs it
23/04/07
Pissed up ex-communist, and the first Prime Minister of the USSR, Boris Yeltsin, today died aged 76, according to the Kremlin.
The cause of death has not yet been revealed however, although the premier had a massive heart bypass operation in the 90's and until recently an ongoing problem with the demon drink.
It's not known if his body will be tested for radioactivity, as after recent events in Russian politics surely foul play must be ruled out.
The booze-hound was well known for his pissed-up antics and once grabbed a conductor's baton in Berlin and, apparently inebriated, tried to sing along with the orchestra.
Blair could do with taking a few pages out of his book by letting his hair down and relaxing with a voddy or two. Might even make Cherie more appealing too.
What a guy.
