    Can't say I am a Blair fanboy, but he was one of the major political figures of the last 10 years, so this news deserves at least a thread here.

    What are your thoughts on this event? I do not know if I will miss him, to be honest. He seemed capable, but a bit too willing to stick with whatever came from Washington, which I guess caused his downfall. OTOH, his successor looks a little, how can I say it... off-putting?

    Oh, i'm sure we haven't seen the last of him. He could become a major player in the EU, if they ever manage to get their act together.

    Frankly, that is the one job I would be sceptical about... If his reputation from the war in Iraq was a problem in the UK, it will make his work harder than doing acrobatics across a ricepaper sheet in Palestine.
