Should Ian Blair resign?

I'd rather sack the rozzers who changed log books and gave false evidence.

And whoever was responsible for denying all those 19 charges in court, as if they did nothing wrong.

Ian Blair? Not sure, but he does have form for being an onanist.

The Ian Blair thing for some reason reminds me of David Beckham after he got sent off in the 98 World Cup. Everybody hated him and was calling for him to quit, but he didn't, he kept his head down, played well and by 2002 everybody was loving him.

Likewise it looks ropey for Sir Ian now that he's just been responsible for killing your average Joe tube-user, but as long as he spends the next four years killing loads of actual terrorists and hardly any non-terrorists, I'm sure the nation will take him to their hearts again, and be singing songs about him when the pubs shut.

The way I feel about this situation, every one of them that participated in this sordid affair should be made to resign; not just Blair.

This killing hurt me as though it was a relative of mine. I can well imagine what the de Menezes family had gone through when they received this horrific news.

For Ian Blair it's not just one incident.
