With a high proportion of Guardianistas seemingly convinced by the thesis of that notorious pre-Ockhamite, Mr Moore, that things are better seen “as if in the continuous story of a divinity who spent his time reading and devising the Weekly Puzzle Magazine” (Eco, Travels), it is interesting to note that The Guardian might (almost, kind of) be prepared to contemplate the distinctly creaky position that hell is, at the very least, a state:
If Blair’s hell has a physical presence, then it might be helpful if The Guardian were to inform us of its location. Tartarus is conceivable but probably too far east, so I think that they may actually be preparing us for an announcement that will see Mr Blair trading places with his chancellor, with the economy immediately taking a turn for the worse.
