While walking down the street one day Tony Blair is tragically hit by a truck and dies. His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.
"Welcome to Heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."
"No problem, just let me in," says Blair.
"Well, I'd like to but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have you spend one day in Hell and one in Heaven. Then you can choose where to
spend eternity."
"Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in Heaven," says Blair
"I'm sorry but we have our rules."
And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to Hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. In the distance is a club house and standing in front of it
are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him, everyone is
very happy and in elegant clothing. They run to greet him, hug him, slap him
on the back and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich
at expense of the people. They play a friendly game of golf and then dine
on lobster and caviar. Also present is the Devil, who really is a very friendly
guy who has a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time that, before he realises it, it is time for Blair to go.
Everyone gives him a big hug and waves while the elevator rises. The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on Heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him.
"Now it's time to visit Heaven."
So 24 hours pass with the Blair joining a group of content ed souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time and, before he realises it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns.
"Well then, you've spent a day in Hell and another in Heaven. Now choose your eternity."
Blair reflects for a minute, then answers:
"Well, I would never have said it, I mean Heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in Hell."
So Saint Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to
Hell. Now the doors of the elevator open and he is in the middle of a barren
land covered with waste and garbage. He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags. The Devil comes over to him and lays his arm on his shoulders.
"I don't understand," stammers Blair. Yesterday I was here and there was a
golf course and club and we ate lobster and caviar and danced and had a great time. Now all there is a wasteland full of garbage and my friends
look miserable."
The Devil looks at him, smiles and says, "Yesterday we were campaigning.
Today you voted for us!"
"Welcome to Heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we're not sure what to do with you."
