The rise and fall of Tony Blair 

Which makes Canada a moral and upright nation in this instance compared to Bush and Blair governments which were both genocidal and racist governments.

We had a stupid PM Blair who wanted fame etc. He should never have got involved in Iraq. Canada had more foresight than to get involved in such an awful war.

Except when Bush said that, Iraq was still 1 1/2 years away soooo…

​@@joelwatson3999love how un-ironicly are saying it was supposed to happen 1 1/2 years before it actually happen like it was 'pre-planned' 😂

Also was taken as an insult to France as well.

By 2006, Labour's backbenchers were sick of Blair. Iraq was the straw that broke the camel's back. Tuition fees, privatization of hospitals, and deteriorating relations with trade unions were issues already held against him, which was increasingly worse as time went on. Blair's big sell to his party was, despite his more right-ward politics, he was 'electable'. However, that was more than wearing off. His popularity tanked post-2003. He won only 35% of the vote in 2005, miraculously coming with a decent majority in 2005. He was consistently 10pts behind a weak Tory Party thereafter. The backbenchers and party as a whole eventually threw him out, and replaced with Gordon Brown who was at one point considered the most popular politician in the country and more in touch with the Labour base.

Low voter turnout benefited Blair after his landslide victory

😂😂

You’ll see him and bush chained together

He had the security services advising him that Saddam had retained WMD, so where is the lie?

and immigration he thought 10.000's would arrive every year, you got that one wrong tony

He did not think 10,000 would arrive.

The intelligence was shady and the intelligence services told him that the sources were not the best however he portrayed it to the public as definitive. I believe he thought it was real but he lied by omitting the relevant dubiousness of the data.

​@@laxeystu8096 bush had already alerted him to the situation and responded by saying that he would support him wherever it took them. So yes, he lied about wmd.

the powerful dont face consequences sadly

globalist bank$ter owned

innocent soldiers lost thier lives

@@ravd8082 tell me again what did those "innocent soldiers" do at the "Abu ghraib prison" Oh my bad. You don't know what that is.. they don't tell u

Thats one less monster

6 out 7 of Iraqi civilians were killed by "insurgents, militia, and terrorists" according to Iraq Body Count's John Sloboda, the people Blair sent soldiers their to kill and capture and you were rooting for. No doubt they were largely motivated to commit so much senseless carnage because they knew you would blame their Western enemies for their atrocities, so every murder they committed became a propaganda victory.

or maybe he was just following in the footsteps of the Americans which caused the tories to use this as fuel to bring down labour

His name is Blair.

This video is more 'Blair and Iraq' than Blair more generally

The US doesn’t recognize the ICC because of this! I don’t know about the UK. But the US legally can’t be touched

100%

putin is not flooding russia with child r..pists

Lol shut up You don't care, you're just virtue signaling

Yeah but equally that could’ve been the U.K. mate, when war wages you have to take a side and protect your own. Not be a beta, sit back and let yourself get r**ped

@@AyoAYO-cm6hb iraqis weren't flying here to rape people

​@@AyoAYO-cm6hbAya there was more chance of you being struck by lightening ten times in one hour than any threat to the UK from Iraq's WMD.They did not exist....

Blair did not make that connection

TS hrs in double trouble because the Pope told him not to go in to Iraq

By some not by most

The Iraq war ended so long ago, it's really irrelevant.

I don’t think any PM who leads us to war should face charges. Blair, sure, but some wars are just necessary to fight.

HAGUE.

He was an internationalist wanting the word of the international community to be above all else. Saddam was a risk to that world order, and escalating to a ground invasion wasn't too far a ste form the air campaign that had been waged against Iraq since 1998.

Even though Iraq was a ba’athist totalitarian genocidal dictatorship, that after the wars became an Iranian puppet state.

@@christianbolisca1493 Not really. They still host America and inform them of stuff.

only Zimbabwe? add a few countries and almost all of europe

lol

Dignified B Liar I think they are the words your searching for ?

Those scumbags always protect The evil countries.

ruwand neither did Germany or France .

Marta more like Tony dollar....

user- know him by the company he keeps ......

Gutless wonders are sick. The ones They should attack is animals like Putin and the leaders of China,Iran And north Korea. They are the real Threat to world peace. The West needs To toughen up to these scumbags.

We British hate the murder of innocent iraq civilians and hate bush and Blair because of it. Blair should go to the US, all the other murdering clowns seem to live there

Do you mean your stolen country.

unlike the us, we don't murder people for fake reasons.

Dennis oh yes....so where are the statues to Bush Rumsfeld Cheney ???

You are just naive banker in that case.

MJB yes you did well to try and root out MBL then inexplicably pivoted towards Iraq and Blair followed your folly like a sheep. 9/11 does NOT give you the right to slaughter innocent people on a whim.

M excuse my French but WTF has this to do with Iraq and 600,,000 dead ??
