Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Just found out magic. Some transfer window for the Blues :0)

Good going forward only problem is he's not very good at actually defending against a strong opponent...however we might be prepared to take him back on loan if the price is right -):

He said in his interview that you're one of the reasons he left Stan. Must be true because it was in the Guardian. Koeman will set him straight.

...it's a cracker -):

Strong and stable government.

Iraq war: judge to review Tony Blair prosecution ban


Private criminal prosecution against former PM was blocked last year by courts giving Blair immunity against criminal charges



Tony Blair caused huge controversy when prime minister in deciding to take Britain into the invasion of Iraq in 2003.

The most senior judge in England and Wales will hear a case attempting to overturn a ban on prosecuting Tony Blair over the Iraq war, the Guardian has learned.


A private criminal prosecution against the former Labour prime minister was blocked in 2016 by Westminster magistrates court when it was ruled Blair would have immunity from any criminal charges.

But that ruling by the district judge, Michael Snow, will be reviewed on Wednesday before the lord chief justice, Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd, and Mr Justice Ouseley.

The current attorney general, Jeremy Wright QC, wants the block on proceedings upheld. He will have a barrister in court to try to stop the attempted private prosecution.


The hearing follows a decision by the high court in May, which has not previously been reported. Then a high court judge said those wanting to prosecute Blair could have a hearing to seek permission for a court order allowing their case to go to the next stage. The judge in that case also said the attorney general could formally join in the case.

There is nothing to be gained by this case proceeding. The country has more than enough division as it is, although I do have a lot of sympathy for those families who lost kin in the war. I remember at the time that I was in favor of action against Saddam for fooling around with the North and South no-fly zones. Maybe that irritation was preferable to what followed but Saddam played with fire and everyone got burnt.

Hang him ,that's what i say .

Tory Blair to hang?...be a very long queue with hundreds of other Tories in line as well.

It'll give him something to think about apart from trying to scupper Brexit.

Tory Blair then Archer...

Morning fun

... and then you

But you are already Half hang, being a Labour supporter

If the legal eagles can go after soldiers for doing what they are trained to do, then politicians who cause the problem in the first place are fair game too imo.

So what are you and the other Tory muppets on here going to do about it then Max?

Same as you labour muppets Stan.

Blair won't be prosecuted not should he be. The Iraq war was the correct thing to do. The knock on effects of handling the post war period was the problem.

blair is a war criminal and a bastard liar who told lies lies lies to get the uk into a war

yes hang the man even that is to good for him

SADAM AND GADAFI WERE FARMORE HONEST THAN SCUMBAG BLAIR
