Reasons to hate Blair other than Iraq war:
* Very poorly thought out creation of Scottish Parliament. While not a bad thing, he didn’t consider it to be all that important. Not like it could destroy the United Kingdom or anything.
* Very poorly thought reform of House of Lords. Again not a bad thing, but it hasn’t really improved much.
* Very poorly thought out creation of “Supreme Court.” It was presented as a simply a rebranding of the law lords, but now it’s much more powerful, which was never the intent.
* Not terribly interested in privacy.
* Unhealthy dependence on the EU. His motivation for the above was “the EU will take care of this so who cares.” This was a problem before Brexit.
* Incompetence, and lack of care. Notice how many of these points say “not itself a bad thing.” He lots of “not bad itself” things in a bad manner.
* Fucking Rupert Murdoch’s wife.
