Young Blair's obscene gesture

Quite an impressive group of dashing young droogs, if you ask me...

Young Blair's obscene gesture

It's the picture you were never meant to see.

This image of a young Tony Blair at Oxford University in the 1970s has always been closely cropped to show just his face or his torso from the waist up.

But now it can be revealed in all its glory, and it looks like Tony Blair wasn't as innocent as his fresh-faced appearance suggests.

The future prime minister was caught on camera doing a universally understood vulgar gesture.

2. What? Not wearing a tie? Breathing through his mouth? Having lapels outside the coat?

Hanging out with someone who wears black socks with white shoes and white pants?

I'm pretty sure it's about having a hula-hoop around your head. But I don't know anything about the meaning of this supposed vulgar gesture. Must be something only the English do. They are crazy people but that's only my opinion.

I don't need to draw a picture, since he already has.
