Blair Interview

I watched the mid-week interview with the long silent Blair. As usual Andrew Marr did a good interview, presumably a lot of topics and details had been agreed up front.

Interesting all the same, Blair has a book to promote and hence the motivation to explain his years at Number 10.

The extent of the feuding between Blair and Brown was never underplayed in the press, and it sounds like it was a lot worse than reported. Clearly it had an effect on policy, with funding for the wars always a sticking point. Also some interesting things like Brown maybe forcing through pension reform and getting Blair onside with the threat of an investigation into cash for honours.
