I'm in two minds to be honest.

If he has genuinely mafe a difference to poverty in Africa, etc then fair enough. You could bring Iraq into anything. The problem here seems to be the influences on the board and allegations of bias.

[andy-hughes]

You could argue that war-mongering and poodling to Bush, leading directly to the deaths of millions of civilians, and working towards the elimination of poverty could be viewed as mutually exclusive - but it's too much of a stretch for me personally.

All this "man" and I use the word loosely has done has been to accumulate wealth and property off the backs of peoples and lies - an award - I would give him a prison cell, the man is a liar with no morals, principles or scruples.

[Baldric]

Well, that ^^^ saved me typing it, well said Brenden, agree 100%

Too smug and cheesy, greedy and self-serving as to generating his wealth, so socialist.....summed up in this cartoon image

It's the wreckage that he left behind in the UK that gets me - if Cameron uses the term 'Big Society' for the UK, then Blair's counterview was 'Wrecked Society.'

The Gulf War was poorly handled by both him and Shrub as they had justification to go in on the grounds of genocide; they chose to ignore it - the ijiuts that they were. Remember that the Brits discovered a mass grave of several thousand within a week of going into Basra and Saddam's treatment of the Gulf/Marsh fishermen as he thought that they were harbouring religious fugitives.
