Has Tony Blair been good for the UK?

Yes, I shall miss his grinning little face

Farewell Tony

Post by marty »

So Mr Blair is finally off. How is everone feeling about this? Happy? Sad?

Personally I'm a fan of him as a bloke, but not as a politician. I'm not particularly looking forward to Gordon Brown as PM though.
My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We’ll see about that.

I shall start with the negatives:

Iraq
Disregard for democracy and the house of Commons
Over taxed
Spin
Presentation over principles
Focus groups
(and on and on....)
and now a seven week farewell tour :x - hopefully he will not keep having them like Status Quo

And now the positives:

As for The Great Gordo:-

Fouling up the pensions system
Selling off half our gold reserves when the price was low
Never being there when bad news was to be announced

How is he going to follow that when he moves next door?

I'm declaring our house a republic with me as Benevolent-Dictator-For-Life. If only politics was as much fun (and as sparkly) as the Eurovision Song Contest.
