Tony Blair’s UK Labor (Socialist) party got hammered in a cycle of local elections on Thursday. After months of repeated scandals and controversies, the voters gave the incumbants a seriously heavy hit.
Tony Blair will carry out a major Cabinet reshuffle today to relaunch his battered government after voters in the English local elections punished Labour for weeks of chaos and scandal.
With heavy losses likely to trigger calls for Mr Blair to name the day for him to leave No 10, Geoff Hoon, the leader of the Commons, confirmed that the Prime Minister would seek to reassert his authority with a bigger than expected reshuffle.
Good luck to him. He’ll need it! The Chief thinks it’s about time to stick a fork in Blair – he’s done. He’s been a good ally in the jihadistan wars, but his domestic policies have been pretty consistantly statist. Britain deserves better.
