What was his legacy? What did Tony Blair achieve? Debt, war, ignorance, welfare dependency, social division.

The crushing burden of debt has held back our wealth creating industries, left us with higher taxes, lower pensions, higher prices, and fewer jobs

Blair's wars – the ill-conceived invasion of Iraq and the consequential war in Afghanistan – have left thousands of our servicemen dead or injured, tens of thousands civilians dead or injured, a prosperous secular Iraqi middle class destroyed, Islamic extremism gaining in strength, and our historical friendly relationship with Pakistan soured.

Blairite education policies have brought about an upsurge in illiteracy and innumeracy, and left a generation of near-unemployable young people.

High taxes, low tax thresholds and distorted welfare policies have created an army of welfare junkies, families in which no one works or indeed intends to work, and a culture in which idleness often pays better than employment.

A welter of "equality" legislation, the doctrines of political correctness which have inhibited robust debate, 'elf 'n' safety regulations which inhibit rational behaviour and a calculated confusion of entitlements with rights combined with uncounted, uncontrolled, unlimited immigration and the sickness of multiculturalism, have torn society apart and led to racial and cultural tension and near-apartheid by consent in parts of our cities.

Blair's licensing law reforms have brought back Hogarth's Gin Lane to a city centre near you.

Mr Blair's complicity in the vast extension of powers of Brussels and the creation of a European Union with almost all the attributes of a sovereign state may well prove to be the step too far which precipitates the collapse of the whole construction, but it will be at a heavy price.

There is comfort to be found in the rational response of one-time Labour voters, some 5 million of whom deserted the party during the Blair-Brown years.

None the less there is one matter wherein he has achieved extraordinary success. His creature Lord Mandelson famously remarked that he was relaxed about people getting filthy rich. His master Mr Blair has certainly done that. But his riches are not just filthy. Much of his wealth has been made in the United States and to some of us it carries the reek of the blood of the British servicemen whose services he contracted out to President Bush in their Middle Eastern wars.

He at least has done well out of his time as Prime Minister.

I said at the time of the 97 election that Blair would be the worst PM this country has ever had. Hadn't reckoned on Brown taking over though.

Seen nothing since then to change that view.

It's a strange world when otherwise intelligent people think the Economy, Education, NHS, Security and indeed Child Poverty are better now than they were before.

Sad to say, but give it time, the full effects are yet to be seen.

Not that Blair could even consider giving a toss.

Aside from the not insignificant matter of there being no coordinated or credible opposition, the main reason being that enough people were taken in by all the hype, spin and let's be honest not so subtle bribery ( on tick ) by the Government.

And for a while they believed it. Some still do.

Iraq was after Afghanistan.

We never had a closer relationship with Pakistan.

Elf and safety was straight from Europe.

I voted Blair in the 90,s I never voted for him again.

Best thing he ever did was tackle the middle East and really speaking 911 did that for him as he would never have got the mandate for it has it not been for that terrorist attack.

No I'm not joking about the economy. Just look at his record on continual growth. Stands up with anyone. People should consider taking some emotion out of these things and respect the facts.

I don't have to like the guy to be balanced about his time as prime minister. As I said earlier, even Thatcher saw him as her legacy. Iraq was his downfall, that said for some it was his greatest hour. I disagree.

"There's some posters on here who are either too young to remember Thatcherism or have very bad memories! "

My memory is rather excellent my friend. Want me to regale you with how we were treated by the union thugs and called out on endless strikes? Or how half the TUC in the 70s were Communists? How two of them were Russian spies? Or how Scargill got pound notes in brown envelopes from the Russian embassy every week? Christ even Wilson took more milk off the kids than Thatcher but I guess 'Wilson the milk snatcher' doesn't really rhyme well!

It wasn't Thatcher who divided the country it was the bloody unions and if you don't understand how bad things were either you weren't there yourself or your memory is faltering. Yes she screwed up big time with the Poll Tax and how she implemented it and paid the price. ONE error in 11 years. But she led us out from being the 'sick man of Europe' (like France is now) to being a Great Britain again. And never forget she handed true democracy to every union member in Britain. No more thugs knocking on your door at night, windscreens smashed with baseball bats or threats at gate meetings. That one change alone to me makes her the greatest PM in peacetime.

And as I ask all lefties who denigrate her if she was SO bad and damaged everyone SO much how come she was elected 3 times with increasing majorities?

I could go on for hours about the negatives of the Blair creature.

"If Blair was that bad, how come he got elected 3 times?"

Interestingly, more people abstained from voting in 2001 than actually voted for him.

The constituency boundaries are also rigged in such a way that it is more difficult for conservatives to win a majority than Labour.

For example, look at Suffolk.

Ipswich - a costituency all on it's own is held by Labour, whereas the rest if Suffolk is split into two constituencies, both of which are held by the conservatives.

Labour have also benefitted in Scotland since the 80's due to the massive unpopularity of the conservatives north of the border thanks to the whole Poll Tax scandal.

Labour are losing support in Scotland now as more voters are chosing SNP.

The reason why Labour are not in support of the udea of English votes for English laws is that they are dependent on their Scottish seats for an overall majority.

If the English votes thing happens, even if Labour were to win the election, they would have huge problems getting any English policies passed.

Though it seems that since the Scottish Independence referendum, support for Labour north of the border is dwindling.

Thank goodness.

Milliband and Balls are a disastrous prospect fir this country.

True. He was responsible for a huge building programme for schools and he also lifted thousands of children out of poverty. Both things now undone by the present government.

Criticising anyone in a position of authority or some sort of position of authority or trust seems to be endemic within our society these days.

Can't say I like the guy but when you make hundreds of decisions, the law of averages say some will be poor ones. Take a look at your own lives and tell me you've never made a bad one ?

Liar? Pretty strong accusation seeing as it's based on media information 90%of the time.

" What was his legacy? What did Tony Blair achieve? Debt, war, ignorance, welfare dependency, social division.

The crushing burden of debt has held back our wealth creating industries, left us with higher taxes, lower pensions, higher prices, and fewer jobs

Blair's wars – the ill-conceived invasion of Iraq and the consequential war in Afghanistan – have left thousands of our servicemen dead or injured, tens of thousands civilians dead or injured, a prosperous secular Iraqi middle class destroyed, Islamic extremism gaining in strength, and our historical friendly relationship with Pakistan soured.

Blairite education policies have brought about an upsurge in illiteracy and innumeracy, and left a generation of near-unemployable young people.

High taxes, low tax thresholds and distorted welfare policies have created an army of welfare junkies, families in which no one works or indeed intends to work, and a culture in which idleness often pays better than employment.

A welter of "equality" legislation, the doctrines of political correctness which have inhibited robust debate, 'elf 'n' safety regulations which inhibit rational behaviour and a calculated confusion of entitlements with rights combined with uncounted, uncontrolled, unlimited immigration and the sickness of multiculturalism, have torn society apart and led to racial and cultural tension and near-apartheid by consent in parts of our cities.

Blair's licensing law reforms have brought back Hogarth's Gin Lane to a city centre near you.

Mr Blair's complicity in the vast extension of powers of Brussels and the creation of a European Union with almost all the attributes of a sovereign state may well prove to be the step too far which precipitates the collapse of the whole construction, but it will be at a heavy price.

There is comfort to be found in the rational response of one-time Labour voters, some 5 million of whom deserted the party during the Blair-Brown years.

None the less there is one matter wherein he has achieved extraordinary success. His creature Lord Mandelson famously remarked that he was relaxed about people getting filthy rich. His master Mr Blair has certainly done that. But his riches are not just filthy. Much of his wealth has been made in the United States and to some of us it carries the reek of the blood of the British servicemen whose services he contracted out to President Bush in their Middle Eastern wars.

He at least has done well out of his time as Prime Minister.

"There's some posters on here who are either too young to remember Thatcherism or have very bad memories!

My memory is rather excellent my friend. Want me to regale you with how we were treated by the union thugs and called out on endless strikes? Or how half the TUC in the 70s were Communists? How two of them were Russian spies? Or how Scargill got pound notes in brown envelopes from the Russian embassy every week? Christ even Wilson took more milk off the kids than Thatcher but I guess 'Wilson the milk snatcher' doesn't really rhyme well!

It wasn't Thatcher who divided the country it was the bloody unions and if you don't understand how bad things were either you weren't there yourself or your memory is faltering. Yes she screwed up big time with the Poll Tax and how she implemented it and paid the price. ONE error in 11 years. But she led us out from being the 'sick man of Europe' (like France is now) to being a Great Britain again. And never forget she handed true democracy to every union member in Britain. No more thugs knocking on your door at night, windscreens smashed with baseball bats or threats at gate meetings. That one change alone to me makes her the greatest PM in peacetime.

And as I ask all lefties who denigrate her if she was SO bad and damaged everyone SO much how come she was elected 3 times with increasing majorities?"

"If it wasn't for Iraq, then Blair would probably find history would be kinder to him.

That's why I asked the question. The Iraq war defines him whether you supported it or not but when you consider Northern Ireland, the economy, the NHS, taking children out of poverty. It wasn't all head in your hands negativity. you are joking about the economy ?

3 or 4 people deciding to have an open door policy on immigration ? Whether you believe in immigration or not hardly democratic !

No I'm not joking about the economy. Just look at his record on continual growth. Stands up with anyone. People should consider taking some emotion out of these things and respect the facts.

I don't have to like the guy to be balanced about his time as prime minister. As I said earlier, even Thatcher saw him as her legacy. Iraq was his downfall, that said for some it was his greatest hour. I disagree."

Growth ! It really is pointless just saying we had growth year on year without looking at facts and figures behind the economy in the Blair years

I'll be the first to say I really do not like him

When there were doubts about the MMR vaccination programme he would not say his child had received said vaccine due to his child's privacy yet didn't mind having his sons photograph slpashed all over the media when he was born !

He could have helped relieve people's doubts about MMR vaccine , why didn't he

I would also add that Blair along with Gerhard Shroeder was one of the champions of EU expansion into many of the old Warsaw pact country's.

Most (if not all) of those country's were nowhere near ready to join the EU and we are now seeing the results.

So all you Blair lovers, get your head around this one.

Thatcher only loved those she saw as her own kind. If there is "no such thing as society" there can be no such thing as a nation. It's easy to beat up on one section of society be it the rich or the poor, the mark of a great leader is trying to be inclusive of all. Sadly a trait few of our leaders have shown of late.

What was good for the country about the coal miners strike, well it was good for one country, germany.

She took a natural resource, over 300 years worth of coal and basically threw it away because she had a personal dislike for one man. We then imported coal from germany at a price that was higher than our own domestic supplies.

The woman was a bitch on loads of levels.

I cannot put any credibility on anything you say if you REALLY believe Thatcher somehow created the Falklands War for her benefit and DELIBERATELY put our lives on the line for political advantage?

And don't forget we are talking about an economy of 35 years ago, with Union domination and she (like all Tory Governments have and always WILL) had to dig the economy our of the shitter where Labour left it. Again!. The Minimum wage wasn't too relevant to people always out on strike.

And I say again if she was so awful how come she got elected 3 times with increased majorities? Simple Question really.

I am sure it was unintentional but you have actually misquoted Thatcher and taken it out of context. For clarification check what the Archbishop of London said about it in his address at at her funeral. She was actually making the opposite point to what you are a accusing her of. (Excuse my poor grammar.) Its at 26:45

http://youtu.be/drJoWMn0nlE

She was very aware of the effects of one action on another but followed her beliefs. Her knowledge. She was a conviction politician and sadly the last we will see. I will always remember her actions when the news of a dead sailor / airman or soldier was sent back from the Falklands. She wrote personally to the family in her own hand. Not some bland officialese. Just her own words of grief and care for those that had suffered a huge loss. I don't recall Mr Blair making the effort for those he sent to Iraq.

They both polarise opinion but genuine leaders usually do. My point is that both Blair and Thatcher were genuine leaders. Both had conviction and wanted the best for the UK.

Genuine leadership is what's lacking in the current crop. I can't help but believe that both Blair and Thatcher would have dealt with Farage and UKIP full on. They wouldn't have danced around him and be bullied into adopting his agenda.

Real leadership, the type that dominates, wins and polarises but gets its job done is what British politics currently lacks.

Like them or hate them the closest today are probably Farage and Salmond, but neither are a patch on Thatcher or Blair!

Got to say I agree there. Even if someone is 'wrong' in your opinion you have to at least admit that someone is doing it because they believe it is right for the country.

As far as Farage is concerned I don't think Maggie would have left the country open to the migration levels and the domination by the EU that is his feeding place ...
