So, farewell then, Tony Blair.

“I always did what I thought was right for the country,”

you said.

Such as lie to it, take its soldiers to war against the will of the people,

and reduce the prime minister’s office to the status of America’s poodle. With Iraq, you taught us if Britannia can’t rule the waves, it can waive the rules alright. Oh, and you did away with student grants and paved the way for a National Health Disservice.

Think back to 1997, you said. Really think back, you said. What was Britain like then?

Well, look, y’know, the Conservatives were a spent force. Now they are fighting fit and ready to take office. We thought you were good, Tony, not a bloody miracle-worker.
