Question


What did you think of old Tony?

PR exercise or genuinely trying to help?

He came across pretty well IMO. Didn't answer a great deal though.

Unhappy

I don't particularly like Tony Blair but I admire the fact he actually stood up and tried to answer questions. I can't imagine Hague having the ***** to do it - he'd rather do his talking in front of true blue fans!

Which brings me to my conclusion - which is that not one of the political parties really represents how I feel. I'm fed up that if I want to vote for a party that represents ordinary workers, I also have to vote for a party full of namby-pamby bleeding heart liberals...I think I might need to start a new thread just to have a rant!

I can't bring myself to even consider voting for Hague - he is such a nonentity... all he can do is put people down. Doesn't seem to come up with any good ideas himself.

Did anyone see Tony Banks on Clarkson a few weeks back? Now that was a decent politician!

Feel free to rant Oz... it'll clear your sinuses...

I was referring to how he came across in the Clarkson intervew... which IMO was pretty well..

I dn't know about the Euro championships comments so I can't comment.

He does oftern talk without thinking so it could have been one of those talking bollocks type comments....

Doofus

You've got to like him for saying that William Hague looked like a foetus though...

Did anybody else notice that they used the 'Who wants to be a millionaire' set?

Personally I think he should've realised that after 4 years the charming smile isn't enough anymore. Telling us that he personally takes responsibility for all these problems and that he is trying his best to resolve them isn't enough either, actions speak louder than words Tony, do something don't just talk about it.

Still at least he didn't have the Illiterate Moron with him...

I noticed that the spotlights etc. were very similar to millionaire.

Well - a lot of people will be watching to see whether he does what he said he'd do.

Also he proimised to do another Q&A session - so if he doesn't follow through, he will get grilled at that time...
