Tony Blair launches most critical attack yet on Jeremy Corbyn over Brexit.
 |
Why, or even how, is Tony Blair still a member of the Labour party? Good party members have been suspended or even expelled from the party for doing or saying less than this former Prime Minister continues to preach to any newspaper or television outlet prepared to give him time and space. In yet another of his never ending interventions in the press this time the Observer followed by an interview with Sophy Ridge on Sky television, he grudgingly concedes that he will vote Labour in the European elections on 23 May, but then goes on to urge Labour supporters put off by the party's "equivocation" to vote for one of the "unequivocal Remain parties" - the Lib Dems, Change UK, Greens, Scottish National Party or Plaid Cymru. He rounds off the extraordinary intervention with his usual attack on Jeremy Corbyn, which of course the Observer and Sky News particularly are always keen to emphasise. Some Labour party MP's will of course, welcome another broadside against Corbyn and some Labour party members will also be lapping up more messages from the man many regard as their messiah. However there are those who recognise and remember the damage that Blair and his small cabal did to the Labour party and find his endless exposure in the press and in the media, as just fodder for those who wish for a return to the "good old days" of Blair, Mandelson, Campbell and Brown.
He should be suspended at least if not expelled as he is bringing the Labour party into disrepute.
