PERHAPS now after losing out to the ballot box, even Mr Blair must realise the repulsion the electorate feel towards him, mainly I believe, because of the Iraq war.

He blames the Cloud of Iraq for the poor results. The Cloud of Iraq as he so glibly puts it, has resulted in the deaths, misery and suffering of thousands of innocent men, women and children (and of course British, American and other coalition troops).

Blair and Bush are to blame for every one of them.

As I have said before they should both be put on trial for war crimes.

Their policies have done little to counter worldwide terrorism, in fact they have made the world a lot more insecure and played into the hands of the terrorists. I for one will never again vote Labour while Blair is at the helm.
