More quotes by Tony Blair
If we are going to carry on growing, and we will, because no country is going to forfeit its right to economic growth, we have to find a way of doing it sustainably.
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
This mass terrorism is the new evil in our world today. It is perpetrated by fanatics who are utterly indifferent to the sanctity of human life, and we the democracies of this world are going to have to come together and fight it together.
Tony Blair
My course has never been about triangulation, and neither, really, is Bill Clinton's. It's not - it's about applying your values to the future in a practical and unblinking way, and that is an ideological view that is every bit as strong as views from the left or from the right.
Tony Blair
Saddam was a threat, that the threat had to be dealt with.
Tony Blair
I think the center ground have got to become the people of change again and not the guardians of the status quo. And that is the weakness it comes to in our campaign. You can see it in your politics, you can see it everywhere.
Tony Blair
The purpose of terrorism lies not just in the violent act itself. It is in producing terror. It sets out to inflame, to divide, to produce consequences which they then use to justify further terror.
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
You've got to listen but you've also got to lead.
Tony Blair
We have no plans to increase tax at all.
Tony Blair
I think everyone's had their pound of flesh and now it's time to move on.
Tony Blair
Bill Clinton has been a true leader of the western world. He has been a friend and a counsel to me and other leaders right around the world.
Tony Blair
We can debate this or that aspect of climate change, but the reality is that most people now accept our climate is indeed subject to change as a result of greenhouse gas emissions.
Tony Blair
What I don't know is whether there is a way politically that you can beat away these, some of these populist movements because in the end I don't think they really do provide answers. They ride the anger. But they don't really have the answers. Or whether this is an experiment we're just going to have to go through first.
Tony Blair
The relationship between Britain and the US is fantastically important when confronting terrorism.
Tony Blair
The thing always is to go to where people really are and what they're really feeling about life.
Tony Blair
When Europe and America stand together the world is a better and more prosperous place.
Tony Blair
I don't concede it at all that the intelligence at the time was wrong.
Tony Blair
I think the journey for a politician goes from wanting to please all the people all the time, to a political leader that realises in the end his responsibility is to decide. And when he decides, he divides.
Tony Blair
The public think the politicians don't know or care about their lives and the politicians feel misunderstood.
