Chickens coming home to roost for Blair

It looks like the chickens are coming home to roost for British Prime Minister Tony Blair. After having the conservatives thoroughly beaten for a decade, he has seemingly decided to become a conservative himself, and is paying the price now. In particular, his idioc support for the US rush to war with Iraq has rightly undermined his standing with the British people. Labour lost the previously safe seat of Leicester South in a by-election to the centre left Liberal Democrat Party, with the conservatives coming a distant third! Meanwhile Labour narrowly won the by-election for Birmingham against the Liberal Democrats by 500 votes, suffering a 26 per cent swing against them.  It shows that people are looking for a real alternative to the tired out of date conservative ideology of the Tories and attempts by Labour to copy them. Just as Spain's ruling conservative party was ousted for its support for Iraq, so too the British Labour Party will follow unless it dumps Tony Blair and its support for the morally bankrupt Iraq war.
