TONY BLAIR DONATES PROCEEDS OF BOOK SALE TO ROYAL BRITISH LEGION
Tony Blair has donated the largest ever bequest of about £5 million to the BRL to help injured Soldiers.
Is this a cynical attempt to redeem his reputation or a genuine conscience for the deaths he has caused? He says
he made the decision 3 years ago but one Mother interviewed said nothing he does will compensate for the loss of her son. It was also pointed out that Tony is on the afterdinner speaking gravy train touring th U.S.A. and
earning a Fortune.

Yes buildersbum, his Fortune is estimated at £12 million and Cherie is earning about £300,000 pa at least.
Tony"s Legacy to the Country is more sleaze that any Government in living memory and not one Department functioning properly, plus of couse a Debt that will take a generation to pay off.

Blair should be counted amongst the biggest war criminals in the history of this nation. Sending our servicemen and women to fight not in the defence of this country but an aggressive illegal invasion of another sovereign state in defiance of all intelligence to the contrary for oil and power.
Take nothing from the professionalism and bravery of our servicemen and women and their allies but they should never have been sent there.
Blair is merely assuaging his conscience and easing his tax burden by this donation.

Thank's wjk.
Words fail me each time our latest casualties are brought back from abroad through Wooton Bassett. The cream of our youth defending oil and drug millionaire's profits to no avail. As soon as we and our allies withdraw our troops, the war lords, terrorists, insurgents, call them what you like, will simply move back in and continue from where they left off........

Panda, totally with you on that, you share my cynicism about why everyone is really there. Rep point for you.
I also worry that now they appear to have found oil in the Falkland Islands we might have another 'invasion' on our hands. With the planned swingeing cuts that are likely to be made to military personnel and equipment following this Autumn's Strategic Defence Review, it is a real fear for me that we will be unable to do much about any invasion.
Our taskforce may have to consist of two people on a pedalo with a speargun, this time.

I agree wholeheartedly with your reply to Panda, we have difficulties defending our homeland from illegal immigrants let alone sending a task force 8 thousand miles.

Thanks Alfiefin
The British never conquered Afghanistan , neither did the Russians. The War in Iraq and Afghanistan has solved
nothing, the infastructure of both Countries has been decimated and it is no good Britain preaching Democracy
when we don"t practice it here. Apart from the most tragic outcome, the death of so many Soldiers and innocent
citizens of these Countries, the influx of refugees is causing more strain on the resources of Britain.

I have much regard for Simon West, he is a living example of the dangers all Military face and naturally will
not be taken in by Tony Blair. I should imagine that while the RBL is grateful for such a huge donation the rest
of the population will see it for what it is, a cheap ploy to ease his conscience and avoid Tax. Peter Mandelson
is busy on T.V. promoting his book........what is it with these Morons that they think anyone is interested in their lives enough to buy their autobiographies with all the bad deeds missing obviously.

100% with you there BB we should all have the utmost respect for Simon Weston indeed anyone who has worn his/her country's uniform. Especially under the control of recent governments where financial restraints have placed our servicemen in harms way with the barest minimum of protective or suitable equipment.
The effects of penny pinching and short changing are still being felt by the men at the front whilst our disingenuous politicians continue to overpay themselves and steal from the public purse.

Re: TONY BLAIR DONATES PROCEEDS OF BOOK SALE TO ROYAL BRITISH LEGION
I was reading the Mailonline Article yesterday and Tony Blair is certainly getting a mauling from the Press in
general and the interview with Andrew Marr didn"t do our Tony any favours either. He scuttled off back to the States but is due to sign autographs at a branch of Waterstones on 8th Sept.
All the comments on the MOL article were quite venomous, I wrote saying if Tony had donated the £4.6million from his personal fortune instead of proceeds of sale from his book the British Legion would have been better off. The Sales of his book will be negligible, already Waterstones are offering half price, £12.50 instead of £25. One comment said he would donate £25 direct to the BL.

Simon is a true hero, unlike any of the Blair family. At least the young royals have served in the armed forces, unlike Euan Blair who is a merchank banker, and his mummy has just bought him a new London flat as he out grew his old one. How the frig can a young single man, grow put of his bollocking flat?

Breaking News.......Tony is considering cancelling his book signing in London in view of what happened in Ireland. The snivelling coward!!!!!! Why doesn"t he just give the £4.6 million estimated to be given to the BL
and show some honour, no way will book sales reach even £1 million at this rate.
