According to the Guardian, Tony Blair is at risk of seeing his twin aims for the G8 summit (Climate Change and Africa) fail and what does George Monbiot, writing in the same paper do?
Any sensible columnist would, seeing that Blair is spending political capital on aims that the columnist support would attempt to bolster the Prime Minister, support him, assure him that while he doesn't support the Prime Minister's policies generally, on this he's right.
No, George Monbiot doesn't do that, he demands the right to attack Blair for not doing enough.
George, would you prefer Blair not to do anything at all? Sometimes a little praise is more effective than more of the same criticism.
