      " Struggling with credibility"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 he's a war criminal and a liar on a scale not seen in generations. Peter Mendelson Bragged that when Blair got into power they sent out search parties to find immigrants just so the " could rub the Torys noses in it" ! , Blair told the country that only 20.000 Poles would move to the UK and more than a million came, This man is responsible for the d struction of Iraq and the million deaths it caused and the complete destruction of British society and Brexit ...... He should be behind bars in The Hague , the man is a psychopath.

    If the UK leaves, it will have no access to the single market. If it wants to regain the access, it will have to accept most of the demands by Germany, France and others. In fact, the UK will have to beg for that access. Staying in the EU may have some disadvantages but leaving it will be much worse for the UK.

    To address the anger at Blair so much as appearing, whilst Iraq was an absolutely unforgivable thing, Blair did a lot of good for the country in his time, but ultimately suffered from the Thatcher problem of invincibility, and to his cost, he found out he wasn't. If you can sideline Iraq for just a second, Blair's New Labour and the philosophy he implemented for the country was the step Britain needed to go from years of Tory government to a short term New Labour government, and then to a full Labour government.
    I obviously am not saying anyone should forgive Blair for Iraq, it was a huge cock up. But try to see his merits too, being the longest serving prime minister doesn't just happen.

    • @Charlie-rk5ts

      Political Correctness is cultural Marxism, Tony Blair's Government destroyed education of state educated children with it, (by denying children their own desk, crowding them in gang's around pushed together tables, result distraction, disruption) went to War with it, denied He created the conditions for Islamic State with it.
      Political Correctness is deadly, seeking to impose a uniformity of thought on all Europeans & - Americans. Blair's totalitarian nature is far reaching. From his house in Israel, convincing Billionaires of its benefits, to them, is easy for him.

    Scotland.
    Last statistic is 260,000 immigrants into the UK and only 8000 of which
    went to Scotland. So how about we send 122,000 to Scotland to balance
    out the numbers across the UK and create new business particularly
    public services a new more advanced direct tran line service to Scotland
    and so on rather than some silly HS2 to Manchester. DO a HS1 to
    Scotland and build new businesses in Scotland to cater for the influx of
    balancing immigration across the UK rather than being all bunched up
    down here is England and Wales.

    Priti Shore that Marr could have afforded anti-depressive treatment - he'll have all but recovered from his incessant tsunami of lugubrious woeful bereavement by this week in 2022. Instead of
    Holding back the years

    enormous problem for america. Because, UK will potentially stop being buddy buddy to US.

    I don't like him very much. But I'm not letting my feelings get in the way. He makes a lot of sense when it comes to the EU.

    Blair really is the "cup of poison" - as for the economic position if we "remain" - everyone is avoiding the subject of the present economic disaster happening NOW in EU and how big a bill we will be landed with for rescuing failed economies once we have voted remain and Brussels announces how the "successful" UK must now foot their bill.
