Tony in my opinion thinks that he could put the great back in Great Britain with his actions. Sadley though he has made a somewhat sticky warm smelly mess of it. Being a friend of the Americans can be a double edged sword and he was too blinkered to see it. He may have done some good for us as a nation but he will be remembered for the things he got wrong not the things he got right. There is a rumour in the rags that before he goes he wanted to back door the so called EU Constitution on us dispite the fact the powers it stripped from us would make is no more than a puppet state.

Isn't that true for every PM except Churchill, though?
It's British culture, we can't help being pessimistic gits.
I blame the weather.

Even Winston made a few major goofs and did some back door dealing with disasterous consiquencise.

Yep and its down top the weather this pessimism but global warming will help give us a sunnier disposition with luck.

I am glad someone else agrees...I am a bit dubious of Gordon Brown though....

The Brown term will probably be like the grey, and boring years under Major.
