More quotes by Tony Blair
Of particular importance to us is the recognition... that what we want is a Europe of nations, not a federal super-state.
Tony Blair
If there are further steps to European integration, the people should have their say at a general election or in a referendum.
Tony Blair
I have never pretended to be a great House of Commons man, but I pay the House the greatest compliment I can by saying that, from first to last, I never stopped fearing it.
Tony Blair
We are going to expand enormously -- our economy, our consumption, over the years to come ... But the consequences of that on emissions are going to be severe unless we change direction.
Tony Blair
Any parent wants the best for their children. I am not going to make a choice for my child on the basis of what is the politically correct thing to do.
Tony Blair
Terrorist threats are not happening just in this country, but in every European country and every country across the globe. As a result of that, we do sometimes have to take measures we would rather not take in order to give us the security we need.
Tony Blair
The first big choice: a government with the strength to deliver stability, or a government that takes the country back to boom and bust.
Tony Blair
I think, there is a possibility - I would say it's more than that - that we will come to a view of foreign policy going forward that learns from the past but doesn't get captured by it.
Tony Blair
The threat today is not that of the 1930s. It's not big powers going to war with each other. The ravages which fundamentalist political ideology inflicted on the 20th century are memories. The Cold war is over. Europe is at peace, if not always diplomatically.
Tony Blair
Now, again, what the center ground has got to do is to respond to people's genuine concerns and fears.
Tony Blair
There are millions of young children being educated to a very narrow-minded view of religion. And it's out of that education of large numbers of young people that you then get this extremism.
Tony Blair
Values unrelated to modern reality are not just electorally hopeless, the values themselves become devalued. They have no purchase on the real world.
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.
Tony Blair
She was the people's princess and that is how she will stay, how she will remain in our hearts and our memories for ever.
Tony Blair
Actually the royal family were very gracious and good to me. But I also found that the British establishment were never quite sure what to make of me. I was a Labour figure, but I'd come from a very middle-class background. In one sense I offended both traditional right and traditional left. But I thought that was no bad thing.
Tony Blair
If people in the end think that you can't do something in a way which is acceptable then it won't fly. The only way you get anything like this done is if people think, 'I understand why it is being done.'
Tony Blair
Personally, I have already turned down the Downing St thermostat by 1 degree
Tony Blair
I want to see a publicly-owned railway, publicly accountable.
Tony Blair
The Iraqi elections struck a blow to the heart of global terrorism.
Tony Blair
Sovereignty rests with me as an English MP and that's the way it will stay.
Tony Blair
