Labour MP's want to oust Blair already...

The May 8th, issue of The Times online carries a story with the title 'Labour MPs tell Blair to quit Downing Street,' are said to be speaking out for the first time on the leadership of Mr. Blair.

The article describes the shock that many of the re-elected MP's felt when they went to the door of constituents during the last election.

Funny but people always vote liberal even when they are mad with them. Guess it is like telling your boss to piss off but then realizing that the money will stop soon..

The article goes on to say that many expert Blair to move on within the next year and even goes on to say that the recent step-down of the conservatives Howard' has exerted more pressure on Blair to go.

Some political observers are surprised that the obvious historic nature of labour's third consecutive majority has been ignored while opponents jockey in the background for position.

These quotes seem to highlight the problems driving this change in sentiment regarding Mr. Blair:

"But yesterday Frank Dobson, the former health secretary, described Blair as an “electoral liability” who would have to go sooner rather than later.
He suggested that if Britain scrapped plans for a referendum on the European Union constitution after a French no vote at the end of this month, many MPs believed he could go even quicker. “Lots of people said on the doorstep during the campaign they couldn’t vote Labour because of Iraq but an even larger proportion said they wouldn’t vote Labour again until Tony Blair had gone. And that’s a major problem.”

So there we have it, the globalists want a smooth entry into the EU, with a person that can sell it to the public which they currently believe Mr. Blair is unable to do. The other reason mentioned above in describing the hostility of Mr. Blair's personage in the minds of many voters is simply not an issue for several years in the future.

Let us stand back and watch what happens. The press in the UK wanted Blair to win because the conservatives did not 100% back integration with the EU. Now we see the knives coming out for Mr. Blair even though the golden boy' carried the day for them but he still is an unknown entity.

Frankly, how can any labourite favour full integration with the EU is beyond me.
