    Brexit has been given an almighty boost

    Blair has decided it's time to 'rise up' against Brexit.

    You can see what he is up to.

    Ends up in disgrace following the Chilcot enquiry and being the unprincipled opportunist that he is, he sees a group of people with an axe to grind and now wants to be the figurehead to try and claw some credibility back.

    The damage this guy has done is enormous.

    I would imagine he has very good reasons for backing remain, I wouldn't like to speculate if they were illegal or immoral as thats something Blair already has to deal with every day when he looks through the mirror.

    We'll be the toilet of Europe if we don't get those doors closed....

    Australian type immigration is essential.

    But individuals that we need have been and always will be welcomed - it's the millions and millions of the great unwashed that a "open door" policy will attract.

    Anyone......and I mean anyone DO NOT LISTEN TO ME....

    GO TO BOSTON:

    Lincolnshire voters were among the most Eurosceptic in the UK, with more than 75% of voters in Boston voting to leave. The town recorded the highest majority of Brexit voters in Britain.

    GO there and ask why !

    I'm not sure why anyone would want to take notice of what Blair says anyway.

    Well what Blair proposes isn't going to be a tea party.

    A multimillionaire supposed socialist giving us "oop north" advice on how bad it might be.

    Like getting contraception advice from the Pope.

    Some more fake news jolly? I don't think Blair has ever stated he's a socialist, and as a socialist myself, he's as far from a socialist as you are....

    " I am a Socialist not through reading a textbook that has caught my intellectual fancy, nor through unthinking tradition, but because I believe that, at its best, Socialism corresponds most closely to an existence that is both rational and moral. It stands for co-operation, not confrontation; for fellowship, not fear. It stands for equality, not because it wants people to be the same but because only through equality in our economic circumstances can our individuality develop properly."

    Hansard, House of Commons, 6th Series, vol. 45, col. 316.


    Blair's own words, apologies for the cut and paste old bean

    Ps you can have the last word if you wish.
