Tony Blair to stand down on the 27th of June

Which looks like a winner for all those who bet on Quarter 2!

Well, I have to say I am pleased in some ways, because whether you like or loath tony Blair, the one thing you have to admit is that he was a vote winner. I don't think Gordon Brown is. So our biggest mountain in terms of winning votes appears to be leaving the stage.

I will wait until he has actually gone to give my full view of Tony Blair.

The BBC has this.

When he actually leaves ,do you think he will go and work as a used car salesman ,because he sold this once great country down the drain.

Anonymous, I suspect he will do the lecture circuit thing to pay for his mortgage which is huge!

Yes - he'll rake in his millions and then abscond to what's left of the Lords ...

Elliot, yes I suspect he will. That said I also suspect he will be too busy on the US lecture ciruit to spend taht much time in the Lords.
