Sh""t always rises to the top Rodo. The man is now a multi millionaire he thrives on corruption, unbelievable portfolio
His cash (offshore?) invested in millions very secretive, now getting his son Ewan into politics. (God save us from another B'Liar ) we have enough idiots in Westminster now. The scandal died very quickly when he and Cheri were involved with the crooked Australian who got them their first properties in Bristol) he has turned his illegal attack on Iraq for oil into a money spinner. The man is a crook! Cannot even call him First Class other than "as that crook" who attempted to deceive our nation with his lies and who turned the Middle East into a blood bath and turmoil.

I could not read the link as Blair sickens me to the core.

I read a site where ex military people post and I am surprised, from what I have seen, that nobody has tried to take Blair out.

I cannot condone that, but to see Blair in The Hague would please me no end.

In 97 it was clear Blair was lying to his own party as well as the people. But nobody wanted to see. They'd had enough of the Tories and were voting to get them out.

I knew my vote would not count for much and that it would let Blair in, however, I voted For something instead of against the Tories. Very little would convince me to vote Labour, but Blair was the opposite. If he were a Tory I'd be voting BNP if the UKIP did not exist.

The interesting thing is that my French friends tell me Blair is help up in Europe as the epitome of good Socialism that works...

Go figure....

If Blair is the Middle East Envoy, he should be in Syria and Palestine working overtime to try and get peace, not getting free lunches and being given an "honour" for allegedly doing something in Africa

When did Blair ever do what he was supposed to? I recall his first re-election. He was on TV being quizzed about why he had done virtually nothing in his manifesto.

Blair's answer? Paraphrased? "But we've done such a good job, given away shedloads of money, helped the poorest, we'll get to the things we said we'd do in the next parliament"

Five pounds for a thought in my head!

He was never challenged on it. Not until after Iraq. He was the worst kind of confidence trickster and so many, especially the press and the media, lapped it up.
