| In an astonishing broadside, [Theresa May] lashed out at her predecessor’s treacherous trip to meet EU chiefs in Brussels while Brexit talks were taking place. “For Tony Blair to go to Brussels and seek to undermine our negotiations by advocating for a second referendum is an insult to the office he once held and the British people he once served. “We cannot, as he would, abdicate responsibility for this decision. Parliament has a democratic duty to deliver what the British people voted for.” |
May also "reminded Blair that it was his own open-door immigration policy which spurred millions of Britons to vote to leave the European Union." However, those for Brexit should never for a moment forget that May, hereself, is a Remainer and hence no opponent of of the EU's own open-door immigration policy, a policy now driving the EU into a state of internal strife and disintegration.
And writing in today's Daily Mail, former Finance Minister Lord Nigel Lawson writes of Blair:
| A recent poll showed that only two per cent of the British population have a 'very favourable' opinion of Mr Blair. It is the sort of approval rating a mass-murderer might be expected to get — which happens to be how many members of his own party describe him, in the wake of the Iraq war. |
