Blair Has Been Advising Macron

[said]

The infamous war criminal Blair has been advising Macron that if the EU sits tight the UK Parliament will get frustrated and agree to a Customs Union and the withdrawal agreement.

What do you think?

The infamous war criminal Blair has been advising Macron that if the EU sits tight the UK Parliament will get frustrated and agree to a Customs Union and the withdrawal agreement.

What do you think?

Predictable.

Blair's been desperate to be President of the European Commision for at least the last fifteen years.

The Prime Minister of the UK position just wasn't big enough for him. President of the EC would satiate him for a while. Then, he would seek to create a new President of the World position. Then, King of the Multiverse...

Like the Jason Bourne film franchise he just keeps on returning for yet one more instalment.

The Blair Identity, The Blair Supremacy...and always The Blair Legacy.


A Tony Blair quote. He said this at a conference in Egypt, while praising Abdel Fattah el-Sisi (to whom he acted as an adviser):

"Yes, democracy is important, but democracy is not on its own sufficient. You also need efficacy. You need effective government taking effective decisions."


Just the man to be advising the EU.

He's their type of guy.

The only place in the EU Blair should be is on trial in The Hague as a war criminal

Absolutely.

Well the odious two faced creep Blair was right on Iraq just too late to my mind, unless you approved of Saddams proven use of chemical weapons.


His current attempts to overthrow democracy are the treasonable crimes for which he should be before the courts along with many other anti-democracy campaigners.

Thinking about it he would be ideal for a top EU job they don't do democracy too well either a long 1 year extension would be just enough time for a losers rerun.

More fake news from Said.
Based on Telegraph and/or Breitbart "reports" no doubt.

WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE?

Not to forget the Blair Rich.

Blair like or loathe him is not material in this, Blair is clearly and openly in favour of 2nd referendum or continuing close links to the EU, agree or disagree is a matter of many conflicting opinions.

What does amuse is that every man and his dog have opinions and state those opinions, but Blair throws his hat in the ring and an instant hysteria results, why?

Reality, Blair is yesterday's man just as is Major and if it comes to that so is Farage, how much real influence do any of the above really have? apart from of course the media looking for another story on the continuing Brexit saga.

Yes SF thier opinions are often not heard to those who matter . Like the rest of us all they are doing is putting forward thier opinion .

Alongside Thatcher.

For a few seconds there, I thought Tony Blair was due to appear on Celebrity Bake Off ...

[Hamble]

Alongside Thatcher.

On what grounds?

Does this apply (well, you did ask) ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARA_General_Belgrano

... or to save you a few mins, here's the relevant bit ...

Lombardo's signal was intercepted by British Intelligence. As a result, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her War Cabinet, meeting at Chequers the following day, agreed to a request from Admiral Terence Lewin, the Chief of the Defence Staff, to alter the rules of engagement and allow an attack on General Belgrano outside the exclusion zone.[11] Although the group was outside the British-declared total exclusion zone of 370 km (200 nautical miles) radius from the islands, the British decided that it was a threat. After consultation at Cabinet level, Thatcher agreed that Commander Chris Wreford-Brown should attack General Belgrano.[12]


I'm not saying her action was right or wrong ... just answering your question as there are many who think this is classed as a war crime....

or in other words, I'm not digging a hole for myself, just supplying you with a plethora of digging instruments.

Conclusion
"....In 2012 the President of Argentina, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, referred to the sinking of General Belgrano as a "war crime".[57] However, the Argentine Navy has historically held the view that the sinking was a legitimate act of war,[36] a position that was asserted by the Argentine Navy before various courts in 1995.[50].

War is horrible and sickening viewed in retrospect.

War crime? No

How could you compare it to Blairs lies and the fall out in the UK from Radical Islamic Terrorism?

No

[salus.populi]

The "war criminal" stuff is nonsense. Any other prime minister would have done exactly the same.
