You must have noticed this ability to have total disregard for politicians or any windbag talking crap?
The flip side is that if there was actually something valid and "real" - that would be a different story and the bitching would subdue  The only problem is there was little valid reason (apart from a deviant war) during Wot'sHisName's term of office that called for some support and "bonding". |
I am in no way above taking shots at politicians but if it is done for every word that comes out of their mouth the power in the punch is lost.
I happen to think it is a nice country and a lot of people that complain have no solutions of their own to offer other than bitch. I don't think there is a 'best country' but essentially it is code for saying 'favourite country' and I would bloody well (man I have been here a while) hope that the prime minister would think this is his favourite country.
I am not a huge Blair fan but it is rubbish - and very Sun-ish - to say that nothing at all good has happened on his watch. The people getting minimum wage for the first time, for example, might be forced to admit at least one thing is better than it was in the past.
Okay, Iraq..but again most people that bitch about that have no solutions of their own but simply quote red top headlines rather than coming up with how they would have done things differently in the climate of the time.
So, when he wants to give a goodbye speech..just let him.
