| | Tony Blair would not quit as prime minister even if he lost the referendum on the EU constitution, his closest political ally said tonight. | | | Tony Blair is facing further questions about his leadership after the worst performance by a governing party in the local elections. | | | Given the almost indecent haste with which Blair appointed Scarlett to MI6, and considering that Blair either lied about WMDs or was incompetent in his use/understanding of the material presented to him, then it seems almost inevitable that the Prime Minister must accept ultimate responsibility. |

| | Tony Blair even stood in front of the United States Congress and said, "As Britain knows, all predominant power seems for a time invincible, but, in fact, it is transient." American politicians giving big speeches sometimes say that America's position in the world is at stake in whatever matter they happen to be addressing. | | | More interesting is Blair referring to an early 20th century socialist in a speech to US Congress. | | | And in his specific purpose of justifying the war in Iraq, Blair was not persuasive (at least to me). |
