Tony Blair is in for a tough time

From the archive, first published Monday 13th Mar 2006.

SIR - I have seen Tony Blair on the television saying God will be his judge about his decision on the Iraq War. Rather strange - I thought Parliament made the decision to go to war, based on the lies he told about weapons of mass destruction being ready to be deployed in 45 minutes.

Bearing in mind the Ten Commandments, it is going to be a tough time for Tony.

One of the other matters that may come up is a clip from a New Labour conference when he stood up and said "he wanted to see an end to elderly people having to sell their homes to pay for health care". He might have wanted that but he has done precious little about it. Tony, before you are judged by God, you will be judged by the people. It is lucky you are handing over the reins before an election or you would find out their judgement first.

TERRY JAMES,
