    Revenge for only being allowed 2 jags. He wanted 3.

      I was hearing on the radio that one of the problems was he was saying one thing to George Dubya and another to parliament for about a year.

      And ultimately what he was saying to George Dubya was what happened.

      I think he could be in a bit of bovver and he really should be - seems like a huge abuse of position to me.

        I've never really understood all this Blair hatred.

        It was the Septics who screwed up in Iraq and Libya. All Blair did (albeit somewhat deceitfully it seems) was get the UK into the party, to bolster our relationship with the US. That sounds to me pretty patriotic and commendable on a strategic level at least, however messy the whole campaign has turned out since.

        Yes, I know Harold Wilson kept the UK out of the Vietnam War, and arguably Blair should have done the same with Iraq. But Iraq was different, because unlike Vietnam it was a traditional area where the UK had been heavily involved not long before.

        But I'm certainly not a fan of TB after he mentioned last week the possibility of a second EU referendum!

                So does this open up the Hutton Inquiry again? After all it said TB was an angel and the BBC were liars.

                  Nah, most of those old black and white kids' programmes were a bit before my time.

                      LOL.

                      Those medical records are locked away for 70 years, if we are talking about David Kelly's.

                      Wonder why
