Tony Blair
Tony Blair could return to front line politics ...when Starmer wins the next election.
He could return as one of the most powerful figures in politics.And this prospect has sparked Hope of a closer link with the EU.The Tony Blair institute for global changes proposes for a new special partnership between UK and EU. Think this would upset a few abers if it happened....

LOL. Oh I do hope it's a genuine posibility and the public become aware of it. Until the Labour party drop all the anti-culture guano, and stop trying to monitor & control the citizens, and get back to concentrating of sensible governance and making a fairer society instead, then best stick with the inept current incumbents, and hope the patriots regain the upper hand in the party before too long.
i admire many of tony blair's early achievements but the iraq war is the most evil and destructive thing in which a uk government has involved itself this century... he played a very significant role in enabling george bush to bypass congress
labour has worked quite hard to divest itself of his influence over the last 13 years

not sure how Tony Blair could return to a powerful position in UK politics, without other things happening.
He couldn't be president as our current head of state is a hereditary monarch. Labour would have to campaign on a republican ticket and there's no suggestion that would be universally popular even if Labour were to propose it.
The Labour Party already has a leader so he couldn't be PM - although Labour do have history of replacing a popular leader with someone else immediately after winning an election.

9/11 happened on America's doorstep. It was there personal atrocity to deal with.
The Falklands war was our problem and America was conspicuous by its absence so we did it alone and regained Sovereignty. We lost 255 men and women in the services with few civilian casualties but it was justified. I believe the first Gulf Was was a question of righting a wrong that Iraq visited upon the Kuwaitis by invading their kingdom. We kicked them out, liberated Kuwait and ran the Iraqi National Guard back to the gates of Baghdad where we were supposed to leave it at that. Bush jnr had other plans and Blair fell into step purely for his own vainglory.

\\//Kelly’s body was found on 18 July 2003, a day after he had gone for a walk near his home. He had been exposed as the source of the report alleging that the government’s dossier on Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction, presented as central to the case for war, had been “sexed up”. The Hutton inquiry found he had killed himself, though there has been no inquest into his death.//
Strange why the files into his death are sealed for 70 years
