But apparently the 80s weren't full of violence, hooliganism, poverty and racial tension either.

Cameron keeps trying to pass off the current economy as being 'all labour's fault' but seems quite happy to ignore the fact that it is a Global economic crisis caused by many more factors than the Labour Government could ever personally affect and that the last recession this country faced was a purely national one and was caused by Tory policy and Tory policy alone.

I found this quite an interesting read:

I think Blair tried to do a lot for education and to support families... whether that worked is another debate all together but Cameron can take his 'Big Society' and stuff it up the Blue Blooded arses of the cunt chums of his that he is looking out for.
Typical Adam GB.

Do you think anybody seriously underestimates how Tory Friedman style politics of the 80's helped disintegrate Britain and made it the over priced dump it is today? Of course not.

That isn't what I am arguing. Here I am focusing on an individual who went against the interests of his general populace and engaged in war. A war many believe to be illegal and thus making Blair a war criminal. And having perpetuated Tory economic policies namely by removing clause 4 and officially becoming identical to the Tories. Blair also allowed the continued deregulation of the financial sector. Sure he spent a lot of money on social regeneration and wasted a lot more, but ultimately Britain was a privatised nation and one where typical households lived in debt.

What it ultimately led to was a bankrupt Britain and a Britain seriously harmed in the wake of Iraq. Now that Blair is gone he is now swanning around the world making millions by drumming up war with Iran and going lobbying for US interests against Palestine. The man is a slimeball, at least Thatcher just vanished after her attempt at botching up Britain. Blair has no shame.
