Hi Tony Blair always visits Sharm - has holiday home there and he was seen on New Years Eve having a Chinese! He visited Sharm many times when he was at no. 10 with no probs to my knowledge. The President of Egypt often holidays there as well. Last June we were kept on the plane on the runway as we had to wait for his plane to land and for him to be driven away. Tge security is even higher on these visits.
