He's not doing very well with a very small group asking questions (ITV)
Dodging questions ... doing that "rabbit in the headlights" lost look.
TV interviewer is p*** poor (much too respectful) ... where is Paxman when you need him!

Nobody defending the war has an easy job. I guess he will age must faster than normal.

He is remarkably bad at answering questions (politicians probably say "remarkably good")
Lot's of false premises and trying to look earnest. I honestly think this whole situation will be the end of him / his government as he's staked so much on things and really put himself out on the longest limb in history.
Does anyone in the UK support Blair's stand and believe him?
Kudos to Claire Short for telling it like it is!

the thing is simon, it's taken a lot for Claire Short to get that far. obviously she only stands on her scruples after she's kicked them about a bit.

she has a history of getting into trouble for speaking her mind and taking a stand on what she believes is right.
I don't necessarily agree with her politics but I do think she is one of those rare politicians who actually does what they are supposed to do and what they think is right.

I don't think so. Blair has chosen to "ride the tiger" in the hope that he can also control it, which he is doing, if only to a limited extent. When this war starts -which it will - watch how the anti's will quickly become "pro's" as the patriotism reaches fever pitch. In particular, watch how the British newspapapers, who are so anti now, start to talk about "our brave boys overseas". I think that war is inevitable. Not for any one big reason, but for a host of smaller ones, none of which seem terribly important individually. Added together they make a formidable case for attack. Englishman.
