Blair Admits He Had No Idea.

[anotheoldgit]

We could have had a damn good guess.

/// In 2003, some 15,000 EU migrants moved to Britain but in 2004 the figure was 87,000. In 2005 it was 96,000, in 2006 104,000 and in 2007 127,000. ///

/// 'We could have delayed for four years their ability to come here and work. We didn't, it's true, the economy was in a completely different position in 2004. ///

Just like Blair to carefully forget these figures, not called Bliar for no reason.

/// when you say WE! who do you mean ??????. ///

I did not say 'WE' Blair said it.

[Zacs-Master]

You also wrote 'we could have had a damn good guess'. It's that 'we' that is being questioned.

Anyway, I'm amazed at you posting a question from a newspaper which you consider to be condemning people as right wing.

Blair's an idiot and I wish he'd retire and vanish from view !

[emmie]

he won't vanish, there is too much money to be made from his speaking engagements.

[gulliver1]

Little bit like Osborne then Emmie !!!

[emmie]

bit like Osborne, i know.

Mr Bliar. Remember the W M D in Iraq which he & G W Bush dreamt up & caused the death of so many ? I still think they are both guilty of War Crimes & should be severely punished.

Agreed Whiskery. Blair really has entered the world of fantasy-land, hasn't he? Kindest thing to do would be to section him and put him in a mock-up of a TV studio where he could spout to his heart's content. I assume his marriage has broken down otherwise Cherie would surely be reining him in.

[whiskeryron]

I think Cherie is busy elsewhere minting it.

[gulliver1]

So the Osbornes can mint it then RON, but the Blairs cannot, in your eyes!

[emmie]

the Osborne's don't need to mint it, they are already wealthy from family business.
