This is all a bit last decade isn't it?

SwedishEdith · 20/09/2015 00:36

You might need to expand on this a little.

NegativeIron · 20/09/2015 00:36

She's a rather good lawyer. I'd like her on my side.

mrsmalcolmreynolds · 20/09/2015 00:38

YAB completely U for making such a provocative statement with absolutely no supporting argument. They may or may not be, but how on earth will anybody reach an informed decision when the debate is pitched at this sort of level? Biscuit

ouryve · 20/09/2015 00:39

Cheri's OK. I don't know how she puts up with Tony, tbh. She should probably LTB.

Prelude · 20/09/2015 00:43

Didn't Jeremy C say he would like to put B Liar on the stand for war crimes? Oh how I would like to see him there.

squidzin · 20/09/2015 00:44

Cherie is NOT OK. She legally defends massive abuse of human rights in the middle east. Qatari money. Dubai money. UAE money. It's all good to the Blairs, they don't care who dies.

OP 100% YEP.

ComposHatComesBack · 20/09/2015 00:45

Lionel's a name dropping old luvvie but a force for evil is a bit strong.

oldshilling · 20/09/2015 00:47

Last decade? Cherie and Tony fight the cause of despair and despotism on a daily basis. Cherie is currently fighting to keep the Maldives' democractically elected leader en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohamed_Nasheed in prison, having just saved an accused Rwandan mass-murderer from extradition to face war crimes.

I'm not sure what Tony is up to, probably worrying about his impending war crimes charges.

Do we have a scale for this? Where do they sit compared to Assad, Putin, Isis generally, Jimmy Savile, wasps?

Iflyaway · 20/09/2015 00:49

Neither of them are o.k. Totally corrupt.

Really, they should be opening up their houses to refugees instead of pocketing all that money....

They embody everything that is wrong in this world....

BigChocFrenzy · 20/09/2015 01:08

They are both driven to accumulate huge sums of money, whatever it takes.
Mercenaries.

MagicalMrsMistoffelees · 20/09/2015 04:52

Tony looks ever more like Jack Nicholson in The Shining. Sort of manically possessed. It's a reflection of who he is inside. She looks like a mad spitting image puppet.

Fantastic actors both but I don't trust either of them.

MrsTerryPratchett · 20/09/2015 05:15

I don't like either of them but really? A politician and a lawyer. One or both is bound to be a liar or a fucker.

derxa · 20/09/2015 06:44

I don't like them for the aforementioned reasons but I wish they would just slip away quietly. They just highlight everything that is unfair in this world.

Scarletforya · 20/09/2015 06:50

Blair is an evil, lying warmonger. The repercussions of his actons continue till today.

RealityCheque · 20/09/2015 06:50

Yabu for quoting Wikipedia.

Collaborate · 20/09/2015 07:26

Really? Because a lawyer defends someone you think is morally dubious, or even evil, that makes the lawyer a force for evil as well?

You're a muppet. Biscuit

Sazzas · 20/09/2015 07:36

They are massively into btl, so not sure abnoiut evil but very money grabbing and selfish.

GoblinLittleOwl · 20/09/2015 07:37

They are a highly unpleasant couple and it is satisfying to see how quickly they have been exposed and universally disliked, but I don't suppose it bothers them. They cry all the way to the bank.

Many lawyers defend the morally dubious; it can make them a conduit, if not a force, for evil. Discuss.

I don't know about evil but 'Miranda' really seems convinced he's right in everything and shows a shocking lack of self-awareness when it comes to what the British public think of him.

Moreshabbythanchic · 20/09/2015 07:54

Nasty, nasty people, I am amazed they have the nerve to show their faces in public.

Tiredemma · 20/09/2015 07:54

Both deeply unpleasant- him more so than her though.
