ABSTRACT
On the occasion of his fiftieth birthday in May 2003, the then British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, gave a suitably glamorous interview to the American magazine, Vanity Fair. The wide-ranging topics that were discussed included both the political and personal, but when the interviewer, David Margolick, asked Mr Blair about his Christianity, the Prime Minister’s Director of Strategy and Communications, Alastair Campbell, stepped in immediately: ‘Is he on God? We don’t do God. I’m sorry. We don’t do God’ (Brown 2003).
