BLAIR, his latest intervention. Should he shut up ?
Discussion
+1 albeit I would NOT blindfold him. Best to let him see what is coming and the fact he is totally f
ked just like the state his Labour party left this country in as he left for his multi millions paid new job.
He is a tosser and so are all his other Cronies.
I did like Maggie though and Teresa May is pretty much on her same wave length and WONT be fked over by anyone.
God save the Queen.

This is the person who gave away billions of UK tax payers cash (for absolutely nothing) in the hope it would give him a shoo in to the EU presidents job.
The person who invited millions to come to the UK with promises of free housing, benefits, and health care, in the hope it would increase voter numbers for labour.
The person responsible for the deaths of many in the UK`s military on the strength of a lie, in the hope it would boost his popularity, in the same way Thatchers Falklands conflict bolstered her position.
Blair should be standing up in front of the UK`s people, but not at a microphone, but in front of a white wall, with a blindfold on, for crimes against the UK.
The only positive thing is that everyone with more than a few brain cells knows that Blair is a liar (hence the appropriate modification of his name to Bliar) so if Blair is advocating people rise up against Brexit, those of sound mind, and with a half decent memory can be absolutely positive that doing the exact opposite of what he says, is the correct path to take.

What a disingenuous wker that man truly is.
The most eloquent part of his diatribe added absolutely nothing new to the rubbish he spouted in advance of the referendum itself. With that, and all of the doomsday predictions on a Brexit vote proving unfounded, what on earth makes him think people will be persuaded by him now? There was zero substance, just rhetoric from someone quite evidently in love with the EU...without any cohesive argument or concrete, incontrovertible fact as to why.
The latter part of his speech was muddled and confused, talking about things that really have little to no true bearing on Brexit or vice versa.
I agree with those noting we should have more of him on air though. People like Tony Blair, JC Juncker and others merely underscore that the correct decision was made.
The end of March cannot come soon enough.

Plenty of people call him a liar, you don't here the same complaints about BOJO, Nige and the rest of Team Leave.
Compare the cost of the lies in the number of lives lost, then come back and tell us who's the most culpable.zygalski said:
I actually quite like Blair, but even I can't help thinking that this is a massive miscalculation & inherently undemocratic.
The people voted & at the end of the day the people will face the consequences of their actions.
Much as I dislike him, I'm not sure this is "undemocratic".The people voted & at the end of the day the people will face the consequences of their actions.
Everyone has a right to speak. UKIP were never silenced with their views against the status quo and eventually that led to the referendum itself. So to try and quieten the opposing view is probably undemocratic in itself.
The timing, however, is not healthy.
If there was something new to be brought to the table that would compel everyone to change their minds then I'd even say the timing didn't matter. The problem is there is nothing new. So it's hard to class it as anything other than divisive politicking (his digs at the Labour party were also highly amusing).
Indeed in the cold light of day, the only "new" info we have would be likely to give heavier support for exiting (all the doom laden predictions proving unfounded; rising discontent on the continent; our economy doing OK; the position with the US; etc).
This has nothing to do with his love of the country. This has everything to do with his love of himself and the superiority complex he has. He simply cannot fathom that people are fed up of that sort of attitude and approach by the political class.

Why the hell is the BBC giving so much airtime to this liar and war criminal?
It appears that we have our own narcissist and mentally unstable guy over here with a hero complex desperate to leave any legacy he can.
Why can't he just fk right off.
Not so cheery,

It's a free country, he is entitled to say what he likes and set up whatever organisation he likes.
However, it would be nice to hear a little bit of hubris from him regarding the EU. Some of the decisions he took as PM undoubtedly soured the relationship between some of the UK population and the EU and it was on "his watch" than UKIP became a political force.
It would therefore be nice to see him admit that the UK's exit from the EU is partly his responsibility. He won't, of course, as he seems beyond being capable of recognising any failings in himself or decisions at all.

He is attempting to relaunch his political career. Jumping on the Brexit bandwagon has immediately catapulted him into the spotlight.
He is so removed from reality that he doesn't realize how deeply unpopular he is. I suspect many of his old allies will be keen to distance themselves from him.

Only those that did not bother to examine the facts in the appalling history of the relationship between the UK and the EU, could possibly still have voted for remain.
Or you just trolling, or do you genuinely believe this? Is it hard to accept that intelligent people may have examined a very complex issue and come to a different conclusion to you? This kind of thinking (prevalent on both sides) is unhelpful.Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
