We all expected drama and a few new wheezes from the old charmer Tony Blair at the Chilcot Commission into the war in Iraq today but instead we got a man who thought it was OK to break into the vodka fridge at Asda.
Former PM Tony Blair looked tired and drawn, as though he had finally accepted that he’d lost the battle.
This wasn’t the political master of yore and his follies were plain to see.
The attack on America on 9/11 wasn’t an attack just on America he said, but an attack on the Brits too. This is plain mad, the attack was on the people of New York and, by extension, the American government. We had nothing to do with it but this sad old fantasist thinks we did.
What will happen to him?
Nothing in the short term although his status in the world is surely much diminished.
How wise the EU was not to make him president.
Mr B thinks this is the end of Blair as a serious global figure.
Will he be apprehended for war crimes?
Well he might be. The US looks the only safe haven for Tony.
