More quotes by Tony Blair
I can't stand politicians who wear God on their sleeves.
Tony Blair
This is not a battle between the United States of America and terrorism, but between the free and democratic world and terrorism.
Tony Blair
I do not seek unpopularity as a badge of honour, but sometimes it is the price of leadership and the cost of conviction.
Tony Blair
When Europe and America stand together the world is a better and more prosperous place.
Tony Blair
There is no doubt that the time to act is now. It is now that timely action can avert disaster. It is now that with foresight and will such action can be taken without disturbing the essence of our way of life, by adjusting behaviour not altering it entirely.
Tony Blair
It is absurd to say in respect of any intelligence that it is infallible, but if you ask me what I believe, I believe the intelligence was correct, and I think in the end we will have an explanation.
Tony Blair
Saddam Hussein's regime is despicable, he is developing weapons of mass destruction, and we cannot leave him doing so unchecked. He is a threat to his own people and to the region and, if allowed to develop these weapons, a threat to us also.
Tony Blair
Yes, I feel I've got something to say. If people want to listen, that's great, and if they don't, that's their choice.
Tony Blair
I always say, when they ask me about American politics, is for you guys to decide who you elect.
Tony Blair
What is true about (ex-Iraq Survey Group head) David Kay's evidence, and this is something I have to accept, and is one of the reasons why I think we now need a new inquiry - it is true David Kay is saying we have not found large stockpiles of actual weapons.
Tony Blair
I think everyone's had their pound of flesh and now it's time to move on.
Tony Blair
Our ultimate weapon is not our guns but our beliefs...The spread of freedom is the best security for the free. It is our last line of defense and our first line of attack.
Tony Blair
If you're interested in politics and you're not following it, then it's a little bizarre.
Tony Blair
Real integrity means an answer. It doesn't just mean - it doesn't mean riding the anger. And this is very difficult to do.
Tony Blair
I'm the f***ing Prime Minister!
Tony Blair
The Iraqi elections struck a blow to the heart of global terrorism.
Tony Blair
Times are tough but they are tough because the government is trying to do the right thing, whether on public service reform, education, health, anti-social behaviour and welfare, or in counter-terrorism.
Tony Blair
The spread of freedom is the best security for the free.
Tony Blair
There is no meeting of minds, no point of understanding with such terror. Just a choice: Defeat it or be defeated by it. And defeat it we must.
Tony Blair
I think we've, again, got to be extremely careful otherwise we'll misunderstand what's going on in Iraq and in Syria today. Of course, you can't say that those of us who removed Saddam in 2003 bear no responsibility for the situation in 2015.
