Prime Minister Tony Blair is to convert to Islam once he leaves office, it has been announced. A spokesman said "Tony has always been interested in Islam and has many Moslem friends in other countries, such as President Mubarak of Egypt and more recently General Gaddafi of Libya."

The BBC has denied that it plans to produce a version of the "X Factor" called "X Snip", to find the person who will perform the circumcision on Mr. Blair.
