Xt500 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Don't know how many times I've said this but Blair produced a dossier of lies which he put to parliament to get that support. MPs are supposed to be able to trust a prime minister who says that he needs to protect the intelligence sources. So your assertion that anyone supported the illegal war is false. They supported an attack based on a non existent threat that Blair dreamed up to gain their support. ---------- Post added 09-07-2013 at 15:37 ---------- There was a 7.3% dip in GDP in the last 3 years of the Labour government. That was the dip and the recession. There was no double dip. you dont really think Blair had enough brains to dream anything up do you? He did as the Americans told him to.

Yes there was a big dip as the World-wide credit crunch kicked in, but they had got the economy moving again with 5 quarters of growth........until the ConDems turned wiped the growth out and we have been flatlining ever since.

Happ Hazzard Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Wasn't there a world-wide economic boom before the world-wide economic crunch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saunaman Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Sorry , is it just me , but what is this thread about exactly ? If it's now become a free-for-all , which seems to have become the case , can I just add me tuppence-worth and say that whenever I see Tony Blair on tv I want to throw something at the screen , thought the bugger was sorting out the Middle East , Labour must feel they're in real deep water if they're resorting to touting "Britain's Most Wanted" as a solution to their current problems ! Hands up any Tony Bliar fans out there ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xt500 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 You Tories have never been keen on the truth! Wasnt it Labour that invented the word spin? They are all full of crap but the Tories alot less than Labour. I really hope that they never ever get to ruin the little of the country thats left! MR Bliar and Brown signed away all our rights hoping that Bliar was giving himself the powers in his next job but it didnt work out that way for the sucker did it? Even so none of that matters now............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands up any Tony Bliar fans out there ? The thread is essentially about how many people usually ex Tory or far-right sympathisers, now support Ukip and it's effect on Tory support, though I don't deny Labour has lost a bit of support to the Ukip loons, it is the right-wing parties which have suffered while Ukip have prospered.
