Brighton - even Hove!

Maybe more lives would have been lost had he not intervened. It's easy to judge with hindsight.

It didn't cause a financial crisis but it didn't help.

What the Iraq war did was destabilize the area and allowed ISIS and other groups to get a foothold. At least with Hussein in power there was some semblance of order, even if it was an oppressive regime.

Yes but I think we want the wrong way about. Right way when it comes down to oil.

I'm sure that it's ben agreed that everything was his fault. Any future bad stuff can also be attributed to Blaire too.

Wakefield

Sounds like he is trying to smooth things over before the inquiry reveals all

I hate how people think it's ok to just apologise.

Reparation is needed as well.

It seems to be a sad fact that if you leave the old tyrants in power that keeps some semblance of order!

I guess this is a lesson in, careful where you meddle!

Yeah, thought the same. Damage limitation prior to the Chilcot inquiry finally making its findings public is my guess.

It is amazing that he dragged us into an arguably illegal war over false intelligence - and all for what? So Saddam could be replaced by IS? He has admitted that the power vacuum left behind has played a part in the rise of IS. Remember the dossier about WMDs that Bush and Blair tried to convince everyone was good reason to go to war - even though this document was never made public?

The war has cost many lives, huge amounts of money and ultimately proved a massive waste of time and hugely counterproductive. Can anyone doubt that the rise of extremism has been largely down to the war in Iraq?

An apology is the very least Blair owes. And it is long overdue
