built 236 days ago
LMAO, MattBelshaw your right there, Tony Blair obviously doesn't care, he's just trying to end his PM career on a good note. People who carry guns in Manchester deffo don't own a PS3 and if they do it is probably stolen from a house buglary lol. Anyway good read news but pathetic row.

Tony Blair refused demands last night from Afghanistan's Northern Alliance to pull out 70 Special Boat Squadron troops from the strategic Bagram air base, 30 miles north of Kabul. Confrontation loomed as the newly victorious Alliance sought to tighten its grip on the country.

Blair's election literature in the 1983 UK general election endorsed left-wing policies that the Labour Party advocated in the early 1980s. He called for Britain to leave the EEC, though he had told his selection conference that he personally favoured continuing membership. He ... supported unilateral nuclear disarmament as a member of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. Blair was helped on the campaign trail by soap actress Pat Phoenix, his father-in-law's girlfriend. Blair was elected as MP for Sedgefield, despite the party's landslide defeat in the general election.

Anthony Charles Lynton Blair was born in Edinburgh on 6 May 1953. His father, Leo, was a successful barrister who suffered a crippling stroke at the age of 42, which dashed his ambition to become a Conservative MP. Anthony was privately educated at Durham Choristers School, Fettes College and Oxford University, where he studied law. He practised as a barrister until 1983, by which time he had become Tony - and a Labour MP.

Tony was a fool to get involved with the Neo Cons running this country. He has singlehandedly brought about his own ouster from office but almost insured the election of the tory party and the systematic destruction of the many briliant accomplishments of his government. New Labor was on the road to many more years of political power for the good of the working class in the UK.

On one score, Tony has good reason to be complacent. Orthodoxy demands strict adherence to free-market ideological norms. Tony has duly 'delivered'- with a clear social conscience for the resulting 'winners' thrown in. In fact, he's gone further, displaying personal empathy with the inordinately powerful and wealthy, be they media barons, pop icons, motor-racing magnates or chief executive officers. This is partly in order to tap them - rather than disreputable trade unions - for Labour Party funds. And, well, fellow winners just seem to appreciate him more readily.
