Hunter S Thompson Trashes Tony Blair Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas author Hunter S Thompson, who guest starred on Paul Oakenfold's album Bunkka last year, ridiculed Oakey's new next-door neighbour Tony Blair this week, attacking him over his close personal relationship with President Bush. "We are losing this stupid fraudulent war in Iraq and every nation in the world despises us," the American underground icon complained, "except for a handful of corrupt Brits, like that simpering little whore Tony Blair." (The Independent) "You can pick up one of his books and still relate to it today," he told Australian magazine 3D World last year. "It's dangerous- I like that, it appeals to me and it appeals to youth; the danger is what he says because it's so truthful," he added. Chatting to Skrufff soon after (to Skrufff's then man in China Seb Bayne) Oakey revealed he's also kept in close touch with the Colorado based renowned gun fanatic, since collaborating on Bunkka. 'I speak to him every time I am in his part of the world", Oakey revealed. 'The first time I noticed George W Bush," Hunter Thompson tells me, "was when he passed out in my bathtub at the Hyatt Regency in Houston. He was with a guy who had come to sell . . ." . . .Look, I'm not going to put this next sentence on the record. Let's just say that 'a friend of mine' was buying cocaine . . .'
