A quote from a Times article

IT IS FAINTLY hilarious that Tony Blair should choose to deliver a lecture about dysfunctional families just as his Labour relatives slip into open warfare over the succession question.


Thought i would share it with you. Labour voters may feel free to vent their anger.

Tony's ego is finally catching up with him and about time.
He keeps going on about leaving his legacy and sorting the mess New Labour has created in the few months left before he goes. He's had nearly 10 years to leave a legacy and the only one he will be remembered for is total incompetence, arrogance and deceit.
The longer he stays the more damage he will do to Labour, and its funny the way that they are mirroring the last years of the Tories. Sleaze, corruption and infighting will have the same affect on Labour as they did with Thatch and co.
Not as funny as John Major speaking out on family values before nipping upstairs with Edwina Currie!

And not half as funny as Johnathon Aitken's speech about his trusty "Sword of Truth" before getting 18 months for perjury

Frankly when it comes to ironic statements you just can't beat the Tories!
New Labour was elected in 1997 to reverse the Tory policies of Sleaze, Privatisation, and the ending of the arrogance of a Secretive Whitehall elite. The public expected higher standards in government and a reversal of the Thatcherite policies of the previous twenty years, with a more caring face to politics - especially important to women and vital in closing the gender gap. These hopes have been dashed. Opinion polls now register new Labour as being more sleazy than the Major Conservatives, a price paid for the cosy attitude to big business figures and the massive cheques received by Millbank, which they brandish with honour as signs they are now respectable.
Tony Blairs legacy is Iraq and no amount of spin can remove it from the history books. To continue on as PM only reminds us of the mistakes he made and will saddle Britain for years to come with middle eastern countries. Many of these hated America, now we will be tarred with the same brush. The USA can BUY friends, we cannot!
How many Labour ministers have served time Zen?
I think it would take the rest of his premiership to lecture on Britain's most dysfuntional family, umpteen divorces, one soft kid, infidelity and insulting language but I suppose his future in the house of lords depends on the Windsors and their ilk.
What a world we live in.
