I think he came across quite well in it...this is from somebody with a mixed opinion of him. Although personally I think a lot of the hate against him is quite silly.

Much of the hate comes from the left (i suppose they are disproportionately pacifist as well). I believe that he was a credit to Britain especially in health, education and foreign policy.

Indeed, i would have voted Labour in 01.
The right hate him for meddling in affairs that weren't ours and inflating the state. Also, mass immigration policies.
I think he's a very good politician; good enough to rule for so long whilst being hated by both wings of politics.

Unsure about education. I think his greatest strengths was certainly on Europe and foreign policy. Probably best leader we had on an international level.

Most of the hate from the right seems to be retrospective in regards to immigration, i know many including myself actually support his crime/terrorist policies and support the security services. I blame Brown for the stealth taxes and loosening of the economy towards the end.

I also think it was under Blair that the courts became far more corrupt and the street police job description changed to Community Outreach Officer. Maybe neoconservatives liked Blair, but conservatives did not.
i dont like tony anymore than you do, but i implore you, dont vote con or ukip. Please.
Why? It isn't like UKIP or the Conservatives are actually any different from Blair or New Labour. It isn't like Miliband or Nick Clegg would be any good in power, and the possibility of the Labour, SNP, Sinn Fein coalition with Green support on kay votes doesn't worry you?
He is in my view 2 or 3 in the worst PM's Britain has every had, he basically destroyed the British governmental system. Still not a bad as Lloyd George or Harold Wilson which were simply terrible.
