Not everyone's happy about bLIAR getting a knighthood . . .

Sad thing is, it will fail, oh well.

 


This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Maybe I am just waiting for my invite to the Palace.

My brother was honoured at the Palace yesterday, so why not me? (He died last March, and was in the list given a clap before the game).

Sorry to hear this WE. I couldn’t believe how many names were on that list, heartbreaking

It certainly was.

It was good to see the West Ham fans showing a touch of class by joining in the applause.

That is true on so many levels.

Blair would have managed the Covid response with a much greater clarity of purpose and calmness.

I also cannot imagine Brexit happening had he been PM, rather than Cameron. Indeed, if he had remained as PM and not resigned in favour of Brown, Labour would likely have been able to form the coalition with the Lib Dems, rather than the Tories. Then UKIP would have probably split the Tory Party, there would have been no referendum, and we would all (minus a few on here) be happier and safer.

Ifs and buts I know, but Blair's abilities are as much undervalued by some here, as Jordan Ayew's are in Palace Talk.

Echo chamber deluded nonsense between two people (Steeleye and WE) who really should get out a bit more. Perhaps even get a job between them

 


Jackson.. Wan Bissaka.... Sansom.. Nicholas.. Cannon.. Guehi.... Zaha... Thomas.. Byrne... Holton.. Rogers.. that should do it..

I agree - I was delighted that they stood and applauded rather than throw abuse - a nice touch!

It lets you all you need to know that someone like Blair as always nailed on for a knighthood. Regardless of politics I never encounter many who have time for him nowadays. And the smugness of the man throughout it all.

There are 66 million people in the country not 500,000 petition signers.

And they voted him PM three times, including the election after the Iraq war.

I'm certainly not saying that a petition should hold sway. Just that Tony Blair is a narcissist who went to war on dodgy info, which resulted in countless deaths that he doesn't appear to lose much sleep over. Even if he still has some supporters, he doesn't need them. He's his very own one man love-in.

All you say is correct, i got no argument with that.

My beef with him is the way he turned traitor to his country by allowing the ira etc away scot-free with letters of comfort & allowing historical prosecutions of vet/service personnel from Op Banner. For this alone is why he will be vilified & never forgiven.

Totally agree. Didn’t his family get Irish passports at the same time? So much for being a UK PM. Wonder what Dr Kelly’s family think

Yep and has feathered his own nest by being in the employ of some dodgy regimes ( allegedly)

No, Blair tried to avoid war by going to the United Nations (contrary to the USA who did not want to).

United Nations Resolutions gave Sadaam Hussein the opportunity of stating he had no weapons of mass destruction.

He repeatedly failed to do so, three times, leaving no option.

If this had been a conservative government we would have more likely have gone to war immediately.

As we have seen this year, conservative governments are just puppets of the USA.
