I rue the day he came into office, I confess to being a conservative but at the time I knew the country needed a change and there was nothing coming from the conservative party that was going to make a difference.
I abstained from voting but watched in dismay as the country gave Tony such a large majority. I knew then it was not going to be a good sign. Perhaps if he had won with a slender majority things would have been better.
Maybe he and his government would not have become so dictatorial, complacent and unsympathetic. It is very likely so many crass unworkable laws would not have passed as with a small majority they may have been better prepared to make sure they got through.

Tony Blair has made the UK the USA's state number 51, as he is always obeying Bush and whatever decisions come from the White House.
So he's a mistake, and i don't know how he even got to the office.

He's still in office?? You mean people voted him back in after the fiasco that was his second term? How did that happen then? - Oh yes it must be due to this country's rediculous voting system where a party can get a majority in government with the support of just over 20% of the electorate.

I really don't think it would have mattered if his party weren't so Hell-bent on destroying his reputation, and that of the party. It's turning into a ridiclous witch-hunt now. Then again, if Tony hadn't said he'd leave after a certain period in the first place, we wouldn't be in this situation - silly polititians!

at the next general election, although i didn't vote for him, i expect the people who did want him to remain in office until the end of his term. Strikes me as a bit mad that in a so called democracy, the person you elect can be replaced by another you did not, surely if he has to go early then there should be another general election, not quickly replacing him with some smug git who has been hanging around hoping for such an opportunity
