The man should feel proud about the fact that he, more than any other politician, manages to get so many excited and involved in politics.
In 2003 a million people marched against his invasion of Iraq. This time it’s over his knighthood…..
A change.org petition which was originally set up to have Blair’s Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter rescinded has been renamed as a “Rally against Tony Blair’s Knighthood ‘Honour'”. As of this writing 1,159,551 people have signed it.
“His policies have touched most of our lives in some way and it is almost always negative. And now, on 13th June, he will be awarded one of this nation’s highest Honours by Her Majesty the Queen.”
“On Monday, 13th June, a gathering of like-minded people is to be held in Windsor, where Tony Blair and the world’s press can witness precisely what the people of this country think about this award. Where people can stand up and be seen by the world’s press voicing their feelings and sending our message that we do not consent to this ill-deserved award.”
The protest by Windsor Castle is officially organised by Stop the War, who are yet to march on the Russian Embassy. What are the chances this protest also has a significant republican element?…..
For the record, I certainly don’t support Blair getting a Knighthood, but sadly, as we all know, he was the turd blocking the pipe, and had to be flushed before Brown, Cameron and May could get their gongs as well…….

A very very late entry, this time from Cunty McCunt, focusing on Euan Blair and his recently awarded MBE
A cunting for the Blairs and the UK Honours System.
Only six short months after his father was rewarded with a knighthood (fuck knows what for: crimes against humanity?), the multi-millionaire-son-of-a-cunt, Euan Blair, has been awarded an MBE (Motherfucking Blair Excrement?) for services to education. I’m 100% certain that no cash was exchanged in brown envelopes. No, siree.
I’m equally convinced that Euan’s big break in business had nothing to do with Daddy Blair’s connections. The lad’s a grafter and deserves every single penny of his £600m fortune and establishment recognition…
The MBE is the first rung of the ladder up the UK Honours System for young Euan. All he now needs to do is: shove his hooter up the ring piece of a US president; begin a war based on fallacious and fabricated evidence; allow hundreds of British servicemen to sacrifice their lives in the name of liberating a dusty and corrupt shithole, which nearly 20-years on remains, erm, a dusty and corrupt shithole; use dark Machiavellian artistry to try and reverse the will of the people; allow unwanted, uncontrolled, low-skilled, high-stabby mass immigration into Britain, all in the name of creating a multicultural utopia; change the country’s demographics for the worse…and he could be rewarded with a KBE.
After knighting the likes of Savile and Blair, along with countless other bottom feeders, the bar is now set so very low for UK Honours that it wouldn’t surprise me if Paul Gadd was awarded an OBE for his youth work, and Peter Sutcliffe a posthumous CBE for his sleight of hand with screwdrivers and ballpeen hammers.
