Yes, well done Sir ..... one of the finest Leaders of Modern Times

Not one poster on here has the ability to do your job - they will whine, they will moan, they will blubber, but the truth is, not one is fit to clean your shoes.

Top Notch, Sir!! We will miss you when you have gone

I admit it's time for a change ...... but, he will go down in History as one of our finest Leaders.

Brown is going to scare the crap out of us ..... the rise of the scum classes will be on us, as he will plough money into the Council Estates in a vain attempt to correct their ills. I'm NOT saying everyone in Council Estates are scum - just that scum tend to live in Council Estates!

Pete, what would you say Tony Blair's single biggest achievement over the past 10 years has been? Just one.

I spoke to Tony this morning and congratulated him on his emphatic milestone.
He did well, but I will be the best this country has EVER seen. The economy is the strongest ever...thanks to me!

I reckon Gordon Brown's short stint as PM will be even more forgettable than Michael Foot's, Neil Kinnock's and John Smith's. Prime Minister material? Don't make me laugh.

Is Tony leaving office with the same slogan he came in on?

Hmm, would have been happy to discuss it before that pathetic retort came flying in. Never mind then.

What a "shame" that 69% of the population believe that Bliar's legacy will be the illegal war he lied us into.

And the longer it goes on, whether he goes or doesn't, the higher will be the percentage that remember him for that.

Just as I warned you, Pete, about 6 months ago.

Tony Blair: the Prime minister whose governemnt couldn't afford to send English kids to university, but could send British kids to die in an illegal war.

Dress it how you like Pete, argue all you want, THAT'S how the UK people will remember him.

Good riddance, say I.

Tel - Neil Kinnock's stint as PM was so short that I don't remember it . His stint as inneffectual leader of the opposition was memorable though.

I remember the Private Eye front cover in 1987 with Margaret Thatcher on a visit to Russia. She was "meeting and greeting" a crowd and the balloon from her mouth was "Of course, in your country the government has no opposition". The balloon from the Russian's mouth was "Just like yours".

I have been ''locking horns'' with Tony many times over the war in Iraq. Unfortunately he buckled under the pressure from George. I would never succumb to such bullying tactics.

Unfortunately I cannot turn back time. I will, however, do everything in my power when I am PM to resolve this current mess. I have a huge task ahead of me, but I'm thoroughly enthused about it all.

I wonder if this country will ever recover from the depths of moral depravity that his policies have led to. He has singularly failed in all the promises that he made to the country and his time has been marked by the lies and spin that he and his self seeking bum licking cohorts have told us. The House has been sidelined while he has made our laws and rules up to suit himself in the cabal in his offices. He lied in his teeth over the reasons for attacking Iraq in an illegal war also making us a world target for terrorists.

France and Holland voted against the Eu constitution being made law and this country would certainly do so also. He promised us a referendum as to whether we would want the constitution. Now that German Chancellor Merkel has reinvented the Eu constitution under a different name he is threatening to sign up to that without any reference to Parliament or the people of this country! He says it is not necessary to do so! Will they say that about our democratic right to vote in the future? Do we really want the Eu to have all the power over making our own laws?

This government has been an utter disaster for this country for the ten years he has been in power, and with the next prat in line that may well get even worse. I believe that Flash has been giving the impression that the economy is in good condition by borrowing to the hilt and mortaging our country's future for years to come. That may come back to haunt us sooner than we think. Why else should he have flogged off half our national gold reserves at a spectacularly low price? Ther has been no sign of an explanation about that and we have a right to know. We should be very worried about when the house of cards collapses.

There is far more but that's a fair bit to be going on with.

PSL, pick the bones out of that, if you can!

Many are saying he'll be gone within the week. This should be cause for celebration, but I'm dreading what will happen once Brown has been foisted upon us.

10 years of Economic stability ..... every single person posting here is better off than they were 10 years ago - if they are not then they have messed up big time themselves.

The conditions for making loads of money within a just social framework has been there for all to grasp - if you sat and moaned whilst the train pulled out the station without you on it who's fault is that except your own??

Tony Blair - one of the greatest leaders the country has known .......

I could do it.

* Privatise the NHS - you don't have health insurance, you die. Darwin - deal with it!
* Education till 16, miliatry service for 2 years and no copping out.
* Benefits cut, only those with real need it will be supported by the state. Wasters can just die - again, darwin, deal with it.
* Pull out of EU, set our own rules. F*ck human rights. Mass jails built on islands with limited amenities (bed, bog, 4 walls). Sentances for all 'harm' on humans/animals increased dramatically.
* Money saved from state healthcare/beneifts ploughed into looking after the elderly that did their share (taxes for 40-50 years) and into roads/rail/transportation/policing
* F*ck CO2 this and Greentax that: measures (and means) put in place for people to live a 'minimalist lifestyle' as opposed to the deliberately wasteful lifestyles we currently lead. Building industry given a shake up to vastly improve building standards to reduce energy consumption.
* Pull out of Iraq, etc. Leave them to it and stop needlessly interfering in other countries affairs.
* Motorway speed limit increased, camera's restricted to key areas outside schools, etc. More police patrols and told to focus on ****-poor driving as opposed to speeding.
