I was wondering what you meant about the second part of your post, the bit about Tony Blair?

Sorry - reference to that fact that hes more Tory than Labour and done little to advance NHS....

I do like Tony Blair, I know that he has done sooo much for the NHS. The people that slate him for 'making the NHS worse' or other similar comments, really have no idea. I know first hand the difference he has made, before him, so many things were left to get out of hand. I can give you some examples if you like.

but apart from that, and the aquaducts what has Tony Blair ever done for us.......

I stand corrected he has probably done a wonderful job - I just think he has done so much wrong in the last few years and been re-elected due to lack of viable alternatives rather than on his own merits.

I think he made a good choice to stay in cahoots with a powerful country that is the US, it will pay dividends in the years to come I'm sure. Other than that, I have no idea, I don't follow politics much. I just don't like to hear when people slate him for NHS things, when I know for a fact that they are wrong/misinformed. Other than that you can say what you like about him!!!
