The Tony Blair Dossier
Compilations of comments/quotes from the British PM. Example:
From The Sunday Telegraph, November 9, 1997: "Tony Blair gave up smoking at precisely 1.45pm on the day in March 1980 that he married Cherie Booth.'It was my wife's idea.' he recalled much later, 'one of the terms of the contract.' . . . "...True to its taste for novelty, New Labour has in fact developed a new kind of U-turn - more accurately described as an "S-turn". In this manoevre, a policy is adopted, ditched, and then, usually after intense lobbying, adoped once again ..."

FORMULA ONE and Tobacco: The World's most dangerous sport?
UK ASH
An open letter to Max Mosley, President of the FIA: As we welcome the Formula One World Championship to Britain, I write to provide further evidence to support the contention that tobacco advertising, especially through the sponsorship of Formula One, increases consumption of cigarettes and helps to nurture smoking in teenagers. We were very encouraged by your declaration at the Australian Grand Prix that the FIA would end tobacco sponsorship by 2002, four years ahead of the time required by the EU Tobacco Advertising Directive, if you could be convinced that there is a link between advertising, sponsorship and smoking. . . . To this end, wish to offer evidence drawn from confidential tobacco industry documents released through litigation in the United States.

Canadian Open Tennis Hall of Shame
Bob Broughton of Airspace provides a fascinating history of what was once known as the Canadian Open
1985: Sport Canada establishes a policy that organizations that receive tobacco industry funding are ineligible for Federal government funding. Tennis Canada responds by setting up a shell company which runs the Canadian Open, and launders money from Imperial Tobacco to Tennis Canada. . . 1996: Rent-a-cops hired by Imperial Tobacco confiscate anti-tobacco literature from York University students protesting outside the du Maurier Open. . . * 1997: Tennis Canada's Web site contains so much tobacco advertising that they find it necessary to post an "adults only" warning at the entrance.
