To think Tony Blair should realise no one cares what he thinks

[Missingstreetlife]

He is lucky not to have been prosecuted for his illegal actions in Iraq, which by the way we didn't vote for but loads of us demonstrated against

I care more about what he thinks than a lot of people who have opinions on things they don’t really know much about except headlines they’ve read

Surprising at it may seem there are people out there who care. Not me obviously but some people.

I care

You are not unreasonable at all, OP.

Yanbu. I'm more frightened by the far left contingent of the Labour Party than I am of Tony Blair opinion or political influence.

I'd rather listen to him than Boris or Farage but that's my preference. It's important to hear a range of views, especially if they come from experienced, intelligent people.

Sorry I meant yabu, NOT yanbu!

I remember my best friend went on about Dr David Kelly at the time and how he was murdered. I thought she was a bit loopy but now with hindsight, it seems so obvious.

OP, why do you think anyone cares what you think?
Live and let live etc.

I care what Tony Blair thinks.

However I couldn't care less what you think OP

YABU to assume NO-ONE cares, but YANBU to assume that SOME people don't care. Personally, I don't give a rat's bollock what the war mongering twat thinks! He can fuck right off. He hasn't been relevant this decade.

I mean he hasn't been relevant for more than a decade!!!

GET AN EDIT BUTTON MUMSNET!!!

The shit show that is current politics makes him look positively electable

This.

I couldn't give a fuck what he thinks. Arrogant twat. And don't get me started on Cherie.

In fact in general in this country our PMs are never that interesting once they've gone. Surprised Cameron has been so quiet tbh.

OP yanbu.

Cameron is quiet because he has absolutely nothing to say because he doesn't give a flying shit about any of it now his moment of power has gone. It was all just a game to him and the arrogant twat has just sailed off with his millions leaving absolute devastation behind him thanks to his fuck-up of a referendum.

Whatever you think of Tony Blair, he quite obviously cares and speaks from a position of knowledge. Every time he speaks people start bleating about 'war criminal' etc, yet he continues to voice his concerns because he knows what a disaster is brewing for the UK and NI in particular if things keep going as they are.

And the A level politics 'graduate' has clearly swallowed quite a lot of spin themselves, just in the other direction. Was the teacher not especially impartial, mighty?

I'm not surprised at ALL that Cameron has been quiet since he picked up his ball and fucked off.

He made a total, utter prick of himself.

First of all, he was all for leaving the EU, saying the UK will be better off out of it. Then for some bizarre reason, he sharply changed his tune and decided we would be better off STAYING in the EU . (A bit like that prize nob Corbyn!)

And then when he called a referendum, and the LEAVE vote won, he didn't know what to do with himself. He didn't see it coming, and he didn't have a plan. So, as I said, he picked up his ball and fucked off, and has been lying low ever since, coz he knows everyone thinks he's a useless, spineless cunt who fucked off and left everyone in the shit.

He's OK though, as he has fuck loads of money thanks to a cheeky bit of wonga from daddy's offshore fund; and a rich wife, with a massive inheritance. So things aren't all bad eh?!

Christ, I so so wish that we had someone like Blair leading a mainstream party in this country. Instead we have the Tory Brexit swivel eyed loons or the anti-Semitic Corynistas.

I doubt anyone is going to get him to think that while others are willing to pay him thousands of pounds to hear him speak.

The Nazis won.
