What should we do with this cretin?

He's already going to be given a stern talking-to -- isn't that enough?

Here's a question, if we knew then what we know now about Blair's premiership would we still have elected him?

I suspect yes because the tories were hugely incompetent throughout those years.

Heh.

Has any else read "the ghost" by Richard Harris? A very funny satirical conspiracy book about Blair (oh sorry, it was about a prime minister Adam Lang who was not like Blair at all in the slightest. Honest).

Love the kick at the end

We all knew it that days when he and others were lieing to (their own parliaments, the UN, their own people, themselves). It's just mean and stupid to pretend we didn't notice.

My own country was damn lucky that we were 2 months before the election before the stupid happened.

Democracy is a good thing after all.

Hold a very public trial, convict him and throw him in the slammer for a few years. It could actually make the next guy hesitate a bit in a similar situation.

Adept has no clue how power works

Power in a democracy works the way we definte it to work. If we don't hold our politicos to account, then it's our own damn fault.
