Obviously Adam will know more about running a country successfully than TB

Tony Blair on the front page of the FT backing Labour to be more Tory than the Tory party....how could I of been so wrong.

Ah yes. Of course.

That means he"s wrong about everything.

 

[newfhouse]

Ah yes. Of course.

That means he"s wrong about everything.

It means we should question his judgement and his motives more closely than most. It means that a party with any pretence of being more decent and ethical than the current administration should put clear water between themselves and the toxic Blair.

 

[theclaud]

Ah yes. Of course.

It tells you something about who he is and what kind of interests he represents, does it not?

Besides, demanding that Adam has to have served as an ex-PM before he's allowed an opinion or a vote seems a dubious basis for democracy.

Anyway, 12ft ladder can't get past the paywall, so the latest bout of unsolicited ghoulish diktats remain shrouded in mystery. Perhaps Multz can summarise. Is it just more Austerity or are some illegal wars recommended as well?

TL;DR, Blair is still a twät.

Yes it does. His own, primarily, like most of us.

It's not that simple though is it. He's no need to be duplicitous now he isn't in power, but serving politicians do need to be to some extent which is why I don't expect them to reject out of hand any nations who are not totally pure. That is the way of the world. Be naive about it if you want.

Also, his track record in power demonstrated some big public spending on child poverty, families and education, but then the foundations for a temporarily strong economy were also there providing the tax revenues.

I'm sure you and Adam, were you in power, would get everything right first time because clearly its very easy. Blair, for his sins, says in hindsight that he now realises he had the headroom to be more radical.

You are doing an Aurora again. I am not making that demand.

Aurora hasn't been seen for a week.

You've eaten her, haven't you.

Still in the grip of corporate America, still pushing the wanton privatisation of the public realm.

Looking primarily after his own interests, like most of us?, well fancy that.

We wouldn’t want “most of us” to be quite so influential, would we?
