Mr. Blair and Africa: first, do no harm

I love this blogger's satire:
Tony Blair is to launch a range of cosmetics upon leaving office,
DeadBrain can reveal. The first of those, Blair Foundation, has
already been developed and was discovered by our intrepid reporter
during a bored afternoon searching the internet.
It's alright to send Mr. Blair up, I suppose. If you cannot get rid of
a leader you do not like, you might as well laugh at him.
But I'm picking another bone here.
The Sunday Times of 7 January 2006 had an article entitled "Blair
starts work on building fortune". As we say back home, on top of whose
back does he want to build the fortune? The Sunday Times says that
Blair intends to "tour the world fostering the values of democracy,
slowing climate change and developing Africa."
Develop Africa? You mean, he is prime minister of a powerful country
for ten years, cannot develop Africa, and now wants to do it as a
private citizen?
