But from what I've seen in the press soo far there won't be enough to indict Blair.

I never thought there would be though.

The terms of reference for the Chilcot inquiry were set by Gordon Brown. Deciding whether or not it was an illegal war was outside it's remit.

I don't honestly know why they bothered. Seven years and God knows how much money, and for what?

I saw Blair on TV, briefly. He was loving it - the centre of attention once more. I had to turn it off.

But Blair will always think he made the right decision
But 7years for a report :roll:

He has always made my skin crawl, horrible insincere self-serving man who would not know the word "shame" if he fell over it. Between him and the Pistorius sentence, the news today has made me very :evil: :evil:

Well at least I have the consolation of knowing I never voted for him....

Given the size of the report no real analysis of it can be done in such a short time.

All we are getting is the media 'spin' based on, at best, a précis of the report and its own prejudices. Tony Blair is one of 'theirs', do not forget that.

Please, give it time for those who know what they are looking for to analyse it thoroughly and then come up with their relevant criticisms.

B'liar is the most repulsive individual, he is glib, a compulsive liar (a necessity attribute if one is a politician) it has been suggested he has serious mental health problems, his association with the Murdochs showed him up for what he is, his illicit visits to Murdochs wife when the old man was out of town. His business dealings, his secrecy when it comes to accounts of his supposed charity when he was PEACE ENVOY. I would strip him of any form of titles and ban him from any appearances on TV. He is utterly nauseating as his his wife.

10m was the cost of the report waste of time, nothing can be done to him, as seen he is protected 24 hours a day by armed guards paid for by the good old tax payer just in case he is attacked.
