Anthony Charles Lynton Blair (born 6 May 1953) is a British Labour Party politician, who served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1997 to 2007. He now runs a consultancy business and performs charitable work. Blair was the Member of Parliament (MP) for Sedgefield from 1983 to 2007 and Leader of the Labour Party from 1994 to 2007. Blair led Labour to a landslide victory in the 1997 general election, winning 418 seats, the most the party has ever held. The party went on to win two more elections under his leadership: in 2001, in which it won another landslide victory, and in 2005, with a reduced majority.
Blair was elected Labour Party leader in the leadership election of July 1994, following the sudden death of his predecessor, John Smith. Under Blair's leadership, the party used the phrase "New Labour" to distance it from previous Labour policies and its opposition to the traditional conception of socialism. Blair declared support for a new conception that he referred to as "social-ism", involving politics that recognised individuals as socially interdependent, and advocated social justice, cohesion, equal worth of each citizen, and equal opportunity. Critics of Blair denounced him for having the Labour Party abandon genuine socialism and accepting capitalism. Supporters, including the party's public opinion pollster Philip Gould, stated that after four consecutive general election defeats, Labour had to demonstrate that it had made a decisive break from its left-wing past, in order to win again.

A particularly combative interview between David Dimbleby and Tony Blair from April 1997 during the General Election campaign.
The former Labour Prime Minister, Tony Blair, has said leaving the EU would create "an enormous economic problem". Speaking to Andrew Marr, Mr Blair said "if we vote to leave we will suffer an immediate shock to our economy" and "years of uncertainty". He said this was not a hypothetical risk but "something you will see directly in people's jobs and living standards" and the confidence of business to trade. On immigration, Mr Blair said he accepted it was "a big issue" but that it was "not going to be solved by leaving the EU". He added that some of the people who come here from Europe "play a fundamental part in services like the NHS" and that free movement of people also applies to British people going to Europe.

'Everybody Hates Tony Blair' - 7th Labour Leadership Debate, Corbyn vs Smith, London 2016
Filmed at the Emmanuel Centre on 7th March 2016. When Tony Blair became prime minister in May 1997, he had a landslide majority, an approval rating of 93 per cent, and he went on to become Labour’s longest-serving premier. At his last PMQs he got a standing ovation in the chamber of the House of Commons. How things have changed. Nowadays all we hear about is the accusations of lies, hubris and money-making business deals. But is this disillusionment justified? To assess the record of this extraordinary politician, Intelligence Squared staged Tony Blair on Trial. Levelling the charges against him was Tom Bower, the investigative journalist who is about to publish his most explosive book yet: Broken Vows: Tony Blair and the Tragedy of Power. Bower admits that he shared the hope and excitem...

Former Prime Minister Tony Blair could return to a frontline role in British politics to try to prevent Theresa May's Conservative Party from destroying the country with a so-called "hard Brexit", he said in an interview. The only Labour prime minister to win three general elections, Blair was hugely popular during the start of his 10 years in power but his support for the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq severely tarnished his reputation. In an interview with Esquire Magazine, Blair said it was a "tragedy" that Britons were left with a choice between a Conservative Party intent on a hard Brexit and a Labour Party that he described as "ultra-left" and stuck in the 1960s. "I don't know if there's a role for me," he said. "There's a limit to what I want to say about my own position at this momen...

Questions to the Former Prime Minister, Tony Blair. On 27/06/2007 his last day in office.
Senior figures from Labour and the Scottish National party are considering calls for legal action against Tony Blair following severe criticisms from the long-awaited Chilcot inquiry. MPs led by Alex Salmond could try to impeach the former prime minister. An ancient law, last used in 1806 could ensure Blair never holds office again. Prosecutors at the International Criminal Court (ICC) have ruled out putting former British prime minister Tony Blair on trial for war crimes. However, Mr. Salmond, the former Scottish first minister, said there “has to be a judicial or political reckoning.” Salmond added, “179 British war dead, 150,000 immediate dead from the Iraq conflict, the Middle East in flames, the world faced with an existential crisis on terrorism – these are just some of the reaso...
Religion is a force for good in the world... NOVEMBER 26, 2010 In a world of globalization and rapid social change does religion provide the common values and ethical foundations that diverse societies need to thrive in the 21st century?
