Because he hasn't been found guilty of a crime that would take away his freedom.

The Iraq war, the membership in the EU and the ceding of national sovereignty away this supra-national body - including major parts of its judiciary - all without the assent of the people. A parliamentary vote does not cut it.

The term 'conspiracy theory' was invented by CIA psych ops, by its own admission. Never mind conspiracy theory. Just analyze his past and present behaviour to see if he was really working for the people's interest.

Blair has already received £800,000 in pension money DESPITE only turning 65 on Sunday £80,000 a year from the taxpayer, giving him a bumper sum since he left office in 2007? Blair is worth of more than £60 million in 2015, including a portfolio of ten homes across England. A Prime Minister that has had such a negative impact on UK foreign policy.Blair should have been executed long ago but his security team costing British Taxpayers £6,000,000 every year are to good at their job.

18:21 Only honest and true thing Blair has said so far.... "politics reduced to a set of headlines." "Politics reduced to self-conforming groups that never talk to each other." Whose fault is that, Tony? The garbage collections guy in the seaside resort? Or you and your spin doctor Alistair Campbell 18:21 And his fear is that sometimes you have to live through something to realise what’s wrong with it. Profound. I have lived through a terrible upheaval. At the time I didn’t know what was wrong with it. I believed that the English and the Americans knew what was best for us. What was wrong with it, is that politicians must not pretend to care about people in a distant land they don’t understand. But wile the proliticans are pretending, the regime-change is stoked by people whose only intention is to deprive us of our natural resources. VIllify the people who had made the country prosperous and successful, install pre-selected puppets who will sign away the country’s wealth to flow straight into the pockets of overseas billionaires.

Arjav Rawal Not necessarily. He introduced tuition fees so that poorer families couldn't afford to send their kids to universities. He was also responsible for mass uncontrolled immigration.

Not really accurate. "In addition, maintenance grants were replaced with repayable student loans for all but the poorest students." Also "Students were given the option of taking loans to cover tuition fees charged as well as maintenance costs". (web.archive.org/web/20100912121245/www.slc.co.uk/statistics/facts%20and%20%20figures/take_up_stats_9105.html) Labour introduced a much lower tuition fee in comparison with the conservatives. Even with the current system it's still possible to go to uni regardless of income, since you pay it back in relation to your income. I've had room mates who have low income single parents. I'm from a middle class family with 4 childen, my parents can't affort to pay for all of our living costs so while my room mates were comfortable I was doing my best to get by. I'm not saying we're in a good place now, but it's possible for anyone to go to university. There are other barriers to poorer families though, the prospect of taking out large loans is more intimidating if your family isn't financially stable. What we really need is more emphasis on apprentiships, which have higher success rates without some of the productivity and financial issues that come with going to university.

4:10 Oh, the master of spin - spinning out meaningless phrases, but that don't actually mean diddly. Immigration - real concern - but the answer is to have rules but not prejudices. Sounds sooo good, but what does it mean, actually? diddly. Master of spin. Acknowledge the validity of people's fears and then tell them nothing can be done about it, because that would mean they are bad people -- prejudice.
