To Bring back Tony Blair As PM ?

[Swirlythingy2025]

basically His experience could be valuable in navigating the current complex geopolitical challenges especially at the moment.

That may have been something to do with a frantic level of public spending that ended up with Brown having to sell off our gold reserves at rock bottom prices, then there was the infamous note from the outgoing Treasury official Liam Byrne when Labour lost in 2010:

“Former UK Treasury official Liam Byrne left a note for his successor, David Laws, that read: "Dear chief secretary, I'm afraid there is no money. Kind regards – and good luck!"

I’m glad you had a great time though. It’s taken us a while to pay it all off.

He was responsible for opening the doors to mass immigration and look how contentious that issue is now, and so he is the wrong choice for Prime Minister on that basis alone.

He also established the supreme court as being an unelected higher power than the Govenrnment which has given too much power to Islington lawyers. His instincts are for Globalism, unelected power and mass migration- all unpopular right now.

Obviously he would not do it. He was however a first class politician who made a mistake. As others have. They do what they believe to be best. As we now turn away from conflict, we won’t get a Pm like him again.

LOL nope!

I’d be happy to see Gordon Brown back though.

Starmer doesn't possess a fraction of Blairs political nouse or charisma. I'm no fan of Blair but I wouldn't be so rude as to compare him to the shambles of our current PM.

There is enough trouble in the ME without throwing Blair into the mix.

YABVVVVVU. Now log off, Cherie!!!!

This is also true. I don’t want Blair back one bit but Starmer is unquestionably worse. By some margin.

He was a liar and as such couldn’t be trusted then and can’t be trusted now. Labour won’t introduce tuition fees - first thing he did. As others have said he’s a war criminal and the problems with NHS dentistry are all down to him.

And GP contracts too. He gave them a fantastic deal to "cure" the GP shortages - that worked well! It made the situation worse! Who'd have thought that paying them more to do less would mean fewer appointments! Doh!

100%, his Robin hood grasp of economics damaged business and the economy - which is needed to fund state services.

I hate to say this but tbf that is a not funny but long time inside joke D Cameron chose to make public for his own reasons. Apparently they all leave that when changing office

You realise he is a war criminal?

The liar who causes a war where thousands of people died for nothing?

Absolutely not.

He did not make a mistake about the Iraq war. He is presumably not a stupid man, he knew there were no WMDs. He lied.

Cherie ‘dear god close your face woman!’ Blair?

Fgs can we stop going backwards in this country?

NO. People who mislead the public about starting wars are not competent to be prime minister - he's lucky he didn't end up in the Hague!
Suggest you read the Chilcot Inquiry's report ASAP. You'll realise how ick your suggestion is.

Good god NO.

Completely changed the face of Britain by flinging open the doors to immigration. They expected 13 thousand Eastern Europeans and got half a million. And it never stopped.

plus saddling the country with so much debt through PFI. Yes we got shiny new hospitals and fire stations but we’re still paying through the nose for them all 30 years later.

Not to mention the war and the lying.

And university for all, which led to massive student debt plus dumbing down of courses so everyone could take part. And also led to the ‘customer is right’ predicament universities are now in.

And the ridiculous Gender Recognition Act.

I agree it felt fab at first, it was amazing after so long with the Tories in power, but overall it was a disaster for Britain and led directly to Brexit.

😱 I accept Tony Blair war criminal over my dead body

How, in a country of millions of intelligent people, can we not come up with a decent candidate for PM? On both sides it's disaster after disaster among the party leaders, which has openned up a vacuum for the far right nightmare which is Farage.

God no.

Although much of it was smoke and mirrors, funded by off-balance sheet borrowed money that the NHS and education sectors, and therefore taxpayers, are still paying for.

Ironic isn't it? Many love Blair as he was charismatic, but talentless. Many do not like Starmer who has much more talent, but no charisma.

Absolutely not ! He was the one who lied about chemical weapons in Iraq.
People committed suicide through his actions, due to his scapegoating!
He made labour what it is today !!!
