Dear All
Blair is back!
That would be Tony Blair who left office in disgrace, sold
out the people of Britain, jumped into bed with billionaires and
millionaires and ended up in a ding dong fight between ‘Blairites’ and ‘Brownites’
for the leadership of the Labour Party.
Tony Blair who has the blood of a million Iraqis on his
hands is 'returning to British politics' because the Tories are 'screwing up
Brexit and Jeremy Corbyn is a nutter'. In a previous existence, it was touted
that Blair wanted to be President of Europe and was hanging around presumably
in hope that a European job offer would come down the pipeline.
It never did!
The Europeans weren’t interested in President Blair leading
a United States of Europe or indeed anything else, they had already picked out
someone else, and Blair as everyone knows was seen as America’s poodle. The way
he prostituted himself to George W Bush after the Clinton Regime ended was
world class toadying of the highest calibre.
Do you remember Blair at George W Bush’s State of the Union
address, where Bush pointed out Blair as America’s pal, it was sickening. Post
exit from Office, Team Blair has run a business which raked in millions of
pounds.
Tony Blair had a great run, he promised much and delivered
little, his catchy tune for ‘things can only get better’ was great PR spin, but
sitting here in 2016, we should reflect on Blair’s record both foreign and
domestic.
In preparation for his return to politics, Blair kicks off
by saying that Jeremy Corbyn is a ‘nutter’ and that Theresa May is a 'total
lightweight.'
And this bit is especially funny, it seems that Tony Blair
like the ‘Blue Brothers’ is wanting to put the band back together again, to
that end it is said that he has ‘hired’ Jim Murphy. In 2015, Jim Murphy led the
Scottish Labour Party to its worst election defeat in 100 years! So, due to
Brexit, we have the ‘big corporations man’ Tony Blair wanting to influence the
Government's approach to Brexit, in short many will see this as Blair wanting
to sell out Britain to Europe for personal advantage.
To get the ball rolling Tony Blair is hunting for a new
office near Westminster because he thinks there's a 'massive hole in British
politics' that he can fill. If he sticks
one million Iraqi dead in the massive hole he will still be left with a massive
hole, there is no way back for Tony Blair with the public, and certainly no way
back in a Jeremy Corbyn led Labour Party. So, other than himself and his right
wing Blairites still in the Labour Party who does Blair speak for?
Is it just big business or the highest bidder?
It certainly isn’t the British people, they have spoken and
they have said they want out of the EU and rightly so.
I have little faith that Blair setting up a new institute to
seek to influence and advise the Brexit process is a sham, no one will want him,
he doesn’t bring anything to the table not from Labour or indeed the Tories, he
is yesterday’s man and the circus has left town. He should accept he isn’t
wanted by the public and the political class in power.
The quip about May being a total lightweight will not be
forgotten even if Blair meets up with May for a ‘coffee’ in the coming weeks.
Tony Blair has is already sunk as May’s opinion is understood to be that Blair is
part of an 'unholy alliance' of yesterday's politicians who are trying to
frustrate the Brexit process.
Tony Blair‘s choice to recruit former Labour MP Jim Murphy
to advise him on how to merge his charity and business interests and to
'bolster the political clout' of his new Brexit-focused organisation is
laughable. After his Westminster defeat, Jim Murphy effective ceased to be a political
force and more or less just disappeared from the Labour Party however, it was
said he still kept up paying the membership fees. How anyone can think Jim
Murphy is a good advisor is beyond me. And his appointment is rather strange considering
as I mentioned Murphy led Scottish Labour to its worst election performance in
history. The Labour Campaign for Westminster 2015 was a shambles, you might
remember my post written in Feb 2015; how the Labour Campaign was seriously
going down the tubes.
Fucking it all up was bang on the money, who runs a
Westminster election campaign with ‘fitba’ as a centre piece, especially when
that campaign has no merit or mandate because the Scottish Parliament has this
devolved issue and not Westminster. It was a stupid small minded campaign that
the Labour Party ran and they deserved to lose as badly as they did, they had
held voters in contempt.
Finally, I would like to give this documentary a plug:
It is called the Killings of Tony Blair.

That prick is partly responsible for the mess that Britain has been having to deal with for the past decade or so.
