I'm sure all on here will join me in offering our congratulations.
Devolution does not equal the break up of the UK.What break-up of the UK was Blair responsible for?
He granted caused the building of Scottish and Welsh parliaments - now we see the demands for independance referendums, I'm pretty certain it will happen - probably in the next 10 to 15 years. Part 1 of the break-up is probably underway with Northern Ireland having to follow EU rules and a customs barrier between England/Scotland/Wales in the Irish sea.
You mean Blair should have foreseen that racism would drive Brexit? A Brexit which had not been conceived of back then. Plus, it was only mooted within the Tory party. Do you think it is reasonable for a Labour PM to take into consideration what a future Tory PM might dream up in several years time?The referendum was in 2016, 9 years after Blair's premiership. How was he responsible? He has spoken out against BREXIT.
Had Blair's government put in place the same restrictions of migration from the new 8 EU countries as did the rest of the old 20 then the UK would not have seen much immigration from those countries P155ing off the old (and not so old) whingers in the UK. Those whingers gave the likes of Farage the support to force the referendum.
I made an educated guess the other day, something along the lines that no UK PM (or government in power) has ever been elected on a majority popular vote.You mean - Boris only won the election because 56% of the voters did not vote for him (conservative).

You don't win anything from someone who doesn't vote for you..
Boris came about because of remoaners trying to dodge a democratic ref result...So unimportant you lot spent years gagging for another...Whatever bolox you think brexit is...That is democracy in action.
Since 1945 we have had 14 PM - of which 11 went to Oxford and 5 to Eton.
11 + 5 = 16
1931 and 1935, but they were weird figures, including several parties, see note 6 below.I made an educated guess the other day, something along the lines that no UK PM (or government in power) has ever been elected on a majority popular vote.
No-one has corrected me yet.
I dare say, if anyone cares to look, if you go back far enough, when there were only two parties to choose from, and the electorate was so restricted, one might find a case to prove me wrong.
