Morgan says bring back the old prime ministers to form a CV19 committee and bring in the military Crazy
Report Whisperingdeath April 22, 2020 8:00 AM BST
Pretty poor interview. It is bad form from a former  Prime Minister to criticise the current one. Morgan fluffed this one for once, too much deference.

Blair is a clever guy even if he is a War Criminal partly responsible for millions of deaths and will be judged by his God but he has a lot of experience to offer and this should be utilised.

I think it would be hard for bLiar to say on TV that the Government and it’s Medical and Scientific Advisers are lying to the people

Mr Blair is a good communicator, but a shifty person only too readily to achieve his personal agenda regardless. He's an egotist with a broad grin to facilitate his cause.

Until he does something tangible and positive for the Iraqis who'd suffered because of his action and Mr Bush's in Iraq he cannot be allowed to lead any political or humanity organisation that represents the UK.
Report Whisperingdeath April 22, 2020 10:59 AM BST
Yes he did and there were many others in Labour’s wall of shame!

But like him or loathe him he is clever and has experience of leading Government that few is us could ever begin to possibly understand. He might be looking for redemption but that is not a reason to disqualify him if he has something to offer the nation that might save many lives

..... and then he can go to hell!

When creatures like Blair and Brown come out from the shadows it does not bode well for common people.  They are owned by the robber barons lock, stock and 2 wotsits.   At the height of his infamy Blair was paid nearly £400k a speech.  Blood money for the slaughter of millions of innocents.   Dont forget our chidren(not theirs)died as well.   For what?  So that big corps can make more profit.  So that the filth in Ryiadh(?) and T€l @viv can sleep more easy at night.   War criminals feted as "statesmen".  The moral compass of the world is dodgy.

Mr Blair would never have been made a Conservative Prime Minister because he's not clever enough. His broad grin would not have sat well within that party.

Following Bush another half-wit into Iraq and against the advice of United Nations Security Council and Europe.

Then he must be incredibly stupid, probably too stupid to get covid-19 and pass it on to The Health Minister, The Chief Medical Officer and the mother of his unborn child

Maybe if you think he is dumber than dumber in Chief it reflects on your own intellect impossible123!

Is it not an irony even the EU - the zone benefited the most from Mr Blair's idea of globalisation - would not give him a role, paid or unpaid? Even the EU politicians think he's so toxic any association is counterproductive eg questions at every press conference he gives will be about him.

Yes but bLiar took us into that war.

They destroyed a Nation State for regime change which is illegal. Their argument was a dodgy dossier with lies and was used to deceive MP’s and the public. The consequences of what they have don3 are still with us 17 years afterwards with people still wanting to run us over, knife and shoot us in the streets.

Saddam might have been an evil man but he kept the region under manners. Bush and bLiar went in without a plan, destroyed the security infrastructure but did manage to put armed guards in the Oil Ministry not hospitals.

What they did wasn't just criminal illegal war crimes but wicked and I note both are committed Christians. They will both face their God one day and finally get the justice they deserve.

May I remind you people are still losing their loved ones, jobs and homes because of what our country started. We have millions of refugees in the region, many trying to come here

Let’s keep it real....who are the terrorists?

If I remember correctly, the Tories voted for the invasion at an even higher percentage with Blair than Labour did.

Doesn't absolve Blair, but I think it is a fair assumption that the invasion would've happened at that time with a Tory government as well.

Mr Blair did nothing to help the hapless Iraqis post invasion. All he wanted was a regime change as if it was just another General Election. Had he been back to Iraq with humanitarian aids or projects? Nope, instead coining it in giving speeches. The EU do not want him, and neither do the British people.

And, he's yet to say he's sorry about invading Iraq.

Was certainly naive in assuming that the yanks had some kind of coherent plan post deposition not just the disastrous clusterf*** to disband the Iraqi army sending a million armed men into the desert to blow krap out of one another. I can forgive him that as i'm certain his intention was good a la Sierra Leone / Kosovo.

What I can't forgive the sack of **** for is opening the borders and leading us to the brink of civilizational collapse.

Rubbish!

He had eight years as a  Middle East envoy representing the US, Russia, the UN and the EU, during which time he bought peace and prosperity to the region - oh, wait.....no....... he spent vast sumson air fares, accommodation and security whilst trousering millions (?) for his own salary during which time, there was nothing but constant controversy about him and the role he was supposedly executing.

So you are correct.
