7 Year Twitch - Blair faces his toughest test...so what does the future hold?

Clairvoyant

Becky Walsh, 31, is well known in London's theatreland. She says:

I don't feel he's going to serve a third term - certainly not a whole one.

He has had a rapid success and achieved so much but in the next six months he will come to a crossroads.

He will want to put his family ahead of work but he can't while he remains in office.

I see he will also become worries about losing his connection with oldest son Euan now that he is a young man of 20.

Blair is also worried about losing touch with his youngest, leo, who is four later this month.

Cherie, on the other hand, will go from strength to strength. She has been quiet because of the bad publicity she had in the past two years.

But she is going to come to the forefront as Tony recedes into the background and Cherie will be in the headlines more than her husband.

Although Tony will step down, he is control freak and will wield big influence over who takes his place as leader of the Labour Party.
