It annoys me when they give these Turkeys power, they were not elected into Government, so should have no key role in it.... Period

Peter Meddlesome being a classic example

Try not to be so self centred that you confuse your own opinion with that of the entire UK, dear old Beags.
I never made any such statement. Clearly there were people stupid enough to vote for GeeDubya's smarmy little poodle.

If the esteem in which he is held is such that he wasn't even prepared to go through with his own book signing, despite heavy-handed security requirements, or the later meeja event, then one can only surmise that very few people indeed would be prepared to tolerate him in public office again.

The "Which" Blair Project rather than the "Blair Witch Project". What do you want me to be/do for you/me, unfortunately too many in this country years ago were "conned" by this slimy limey moron. And as for his wife, the "Blair Witch", who has the dress sense of a blind bat, I rest my case m'Lud. A long period of silence from that New Labour crowd would be most appreciated by all.

I'll give Tont Blair his due. In one respect he was an absolute genius. He succeeded in fooling most of the people most of the time!

racedo,
The he let in too many Eastern Europeans .................true but given overwhelming majority of those who came in actually work for a living and their taxes pay for the 7 million incumbents living here on the dole, welfare, sickness and other schemes then hard one to blame him on.
That appears to be turning into another popular misconception. Mrs CK's BFF (to use current terminology) is in a north central england job centre. The %age of non-UK national "clients" (not allowed to call them claimants any more) is now approaching the halfway mark.
Yes there are plenty of Uk nationals that could do with a boot up the "harris" but to paint it as simplistically as incumbents sponging off the state is, as I say, a misconception.

That is something that can be laid at the feet of Bliar, Brown etc, something that even they have admitted was a mistake.

A man who used to spin and stall so often that he did HASELL checks every morning.

Maybe the Trillion Pound debt he and clown Brown left us with, whilst at the same time he and that harridan wife of his trousering millions, and telling us socialism was good, for them ? Biggest flim flam, snake oil salesman ever to ru(i)n the UK. I hated him using the term "Ruling Class", whenever he was describing New Labour. Typical wannabe President and First Lady with delusions of competence

The possible resurgence of Blair and the Blair Witch,should be sufficient grounds to actually form a" Star Chamber",as used by Michael Douglas,not the Morton of "Morton's Fork",as used by Henry V11.Maybe the Fork could be used for the Blair Mouthpiece,who ought to be another subject of the Star Chamber-one A. Campbell!!!I can think of a few others from the Dark Side,already mentioned.Food for thought and a constant wish if one was Terminal!!!

Were it only 2.5 million on dole then manageable, you forgetting the other 4.5 million on all the other benefits.

In certain areas I agree East European immigrants may end up on welfare and collecting but knowing many many Poles I know very few who wish to live off the state or are in anyway inclined to do so.

He didn't fool me for a second, AGS Man! I took my optional retirement date in 1997 rather than be under that charlatan’s jurisdiction. I wouldn’t prostitute my Commission to that loathsome creature for anything.

Decent public school, Oxford degree, rich wife, wealthy, an obvious shoe-in for the Tories.

The only thing I'd like to see Blair introduced to, is a rope round the neck and a trap door and if some of the others in his cabal were to join him in that position, I'd happily adjust the rope and pull the lever.

Gentlemen, gentlemen I would like to request that we do not discuss political personages on our forum as it is simply too depressing!

This reminds me of a phrase posted on the US politics thread.........

"It would be like backing up the Titanic for another run at the iceberg!"

Perhaps Mr Blair likes to use Weber BBQs and thus entirely relevant in this forum!. But charcoal or gas.....?

Why is he not Lord Bliar of Waltermittytown or even Sir Tony
HMTQ couldn't fathom the thought of there being a Lady Cherie....
