Tony Blair's opening remarks at his final PMQ's - BBC News

[SnorkyO]

He'd still get my vote

[k1ngross]

They all regret pushing him out now we have baby Brown in power

[Joe22300]

Has he married George Bush yet

[AlonsoLegend]

If he was that sorry him and Mr Brown would make sure our armed forces are equipped properly before going to war, instead of saving money there to pour into a catastrophic NHS! It will take at least a decade for our armed forces to recover from what Labour have done!

[arkor7]

Blair is great

[app1esuk]

compared to the stuttery Gordon Brown... a no contest

[lordinovau]

Blair was one of this countries worst PM's. Good riddance I say. I really cannot understand the logic in pinning economic growth on Blair or Brown. And how quickly people forget the reality of what this man has done to this country, either through Europe, Iraq, the NHS, corruption, over-spin etc. etc.

[Kempley05]

Well said. Remember that economic growth is somthing that should happen under ANY government. We've been nothing special for the past 10 years, and our stability is largly due to a very strong global market thats carried us.

[RampageLiddell]

lol

[kritzykins]

ignore that comment.

[SIDRAT9]

Tony blair was a very good prime minister but he made one big mistake.

[drantb]

look at john prescott all the way through that speech he's either asleep or just plain bored.

[mico2020]

He has been looking bored like that over the past 10 years! imagine how he'd look if he stayed on under Brown

[Jonamon]

John Prescott's just a corpse that they fill with jelly.

Every so often this jelly wobbles and some air passes out and someone takes it as an interview, also sometimes his fist lands in someone's face.

Basically he's dead.

[OneMove33]

You mean he is not conciouss in other words he is a zombie, well morally at least.

[ohwell186]

Tony Blair has been a Prime Minister that has changed the face of Britain in a deeply positive manner. I feel it is a pity that all the good work he has done over the last decade may be tainted by, in some people's eyes, a poor choice regarding Iraq (an issue about which I am divided). He will be sorely missed and I think that there is not a person in Britain today who has not benefited from his government.

[kritzykins]

I assume you are talking about the economic growth that has occurred and caused the rise in British living standards I don't agree that that was the cause of the government, rather it was a result of world market forces. TBC
