I work for o2 and got an interesting work email today stating that the prime war criminal himself is going to be available to answer public questions, on the o2 active wap site. I read into it, and its maybe not as exciting as directly putting questions to the man, but...

I don't know, take a look at the email...
Please don't think I'm attempting to improve my companies revenue here. I hate my job and I'm leaving shortly!!

Prime Minister’s Question Time

Ever wanted to ask the Prime Minister a question? Now’s your chance.


On Thursday 25th November O2 is hosting a "WAP Chat" with Tony Blair, which will be transmitted live from 10 Downing Street. The chat will begin at 1pm and last for 45 minutes.


From today O2 employees and all other members of the public will be able to submit questions in advance by SMS, MMS, and WAP. To submit a question by text message all you need to do is text the letters PM followed by your question to 80202.



For example, PM How do you live with the genocidal slaughter of Iraqi women and Children, both by sanctions and war since you came to power?

Or possibly, PM how does your head feel when its stuck up G W's custy asshole?


All messages and WAP browsing will be charged at standard rate with profits donated to our charity partner Weston Spirit. (Don't know who these are - ed)



On the day Capital FM’s Margherita Taylor will select 20 - 30 questions from those that have been submitted and put these direct to the PM in a live WAP Chat on O2 Active. (Which is the bit where I guess any questions with any real relevance will be selected out - maybe its not worth it - ed)



You can watch the interview live on O2 Active by connecting to wap/o2.co.uk/pm. At the end of the session the full transcript will be posted on www.O2.co.uk



The chat is hosted exclusively on O2 Active but customers from all networks will be able to submit questions in advance by text message, and customers from other networks with WAP enabled phones can also enter the chat room on the day (with the exception of customers from the 3 network).

We’d like to make this event a great success and you can help by putting your burning questions to the PM.

If you’d like more information contact Steven Bartholomew on 07739 600 030, Manjit Waters on 07712 340 564 or John Talbot 07734 607 049.
