Tony Blair is quite correct to think that he is “less of a hate figure for the Labour left than he used to be” (“Revenues at Blair’s institute climb to $140mn as 40-plus nations seek advice”, Interview, December 23).
Mention the Iraq war to young Labour activists today and their eyes take on a glazed “Boer war” look. Mention three election victories in a row and their eyes light up.
