PUBLIC MARKS from "Mal Burns" with tag blair

This is the transcript of last week's Commons debate on Iraq - the first one it's had and also one the Prime Preacher himself refused to attend. Luckily, the bucket was on hand to stand up for government follies. When going to this link don't think I've got it wrong. There's a brief bit on waterways and such before the debate starts around two paragraphs down. It then continues by going to "next section" - the expression "page" not seemingly known in the parliamentary language. Suffer it - you need the information!

Dramatic figures and cause for concern. This is in Blair's Britain!

Talking of turkeys, the prime preacher coninues to run around trying to do all the things he didn't get around to furing the last decade. Europe made it pretty clear this week that Turkey's entry to the EU would be put on hold a while, so once again Blair is pissing against the wind. More alarming still is that he appears desparate to go down in history trying to settle the problem with the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Bad enough that it is far too late in his premiership for him to make any real impact. Worse still that his hasty and superficial meddling could just make matters worse for the credibility of his sucessors.
