If he did have WMD's it would have been because the West sold them to him.

I think there's one point that almost everyone ( not just on here i don't mean ) is missing...

maybe Saddam did NOT have WMDs ( and the evidence 'suggests'...not 'proves' that to be the case).

But you can bet your booty that if he had been let well alone, by this time he WOULD have them and everyone would be saying "How could we have let that happen"....

Just my thoughts before bedtime :)

I'm a Socialist too - but I'd rather have one Blair who got things wrong than 100 Thatchers who didn't even try to get things right

I am a Socialist, so not surprisingly I absolutely loathe Blair. I shall be watching tomorrow.

Sorry, Muffy, but I have to disagree. Nothing personal, you understand - just a difference of opinion.

I get a bit sick of hearing about how the country was against the invasion of Iraq at the time - that isn't my recollection.

And, sorry again, but I have to disagree about the Maggie - v - Blair point. I for one lived through the Thatcher years. I really hope we never go back to those "mine for me and bugger anyone else" times.

Looking back, the young Blair was a breath of fresh air. Maybe he got carried away on the world stage, maybe he didn't get it all right, but I'd rather have one of him than a thousand of the other alternative.

Must off to look after my duck pond on my moat - after all, I'm just a common man

Weapons of mass destruction and sexed up dossiers....HE LIED. The commons voted on the information they were given which has turned out to be utter rubbish.

The people of the falklands were invaded and that war imho was valid.

This isn't about Maggie anyhow it's about Blair.

Looks like I'm in a minority of one.....

I seem to remember that this Govt and this Opposition (without the Lib Dems) actually backed this "war".

I don't remember much movement at the time for calling Tony Blair an oil slick etc

Hindsight's a wonderful thing

I also remember Blair at the Labour Party Conference turning the party around against rule 44. At that time he was heralded as the voice of New Labour.

How quickly we all forget - or perhaps we'd all like to go back to Maggie's "mine for me and bugger the rest of humanity" land? Or perhaps we could invade Argentina again? They must have had wmd!

I'm sure he'll turn it into another money-making scheme!

I don't either Whirls but I'm looking forward to watching him squirm..........xx

I've followed most of it so far but am out tomorrow. I don't think anything will come of this enquiry, I dont think anyone will be held to "account" and we wont hear anything that we havent already heard....

I'll be watching him .. with his smarmy talk .

Muffy,

I don't think he cares what he says........now he's a Multimillionaire.

Set up for life..!!

But I WILL be watching.

nope dont do politics or even vote there are just a bunch of liars and cheats. you cant trust em.

I joined that peaceful march against the invasion of Iraq all those years ago, where a million people protested. It made no difference, as we know, and no I don't want to see his face or listen to what he has to say. The viper! lol BCXX

look carefully, to see if Tone is wearing his teflon trousers.

Bob

Yes, and sticking Large Sharp Pins into his Effigy.**M**.

I will be. I'll be very interested in whatever he's got to say, though he will bang on about believing he was right at the time and so on.

More and more evidence shows that the war was actually illegal (so tell us something new!), and I don't believe we should just be hearing Blair, he was only Bush's puppet. It's Bush I want to hear...because without his marching into Iraq, Blair wouldn't have followed. I really believe Bush was looking for an excuse to finish what Daddy Bush didn't in Iraq.

Shame that won't be included in this inquiry

I'm not over struck on him myself Alko lol.

Think you're right there Mau xx

Nope, i hate him xxx

..not watching Muffy,but listening...... he'll wriggle his way out with that cheesey/sincere? face as usual... pah.. why should he worry while he's making his 'cash'....
