Tony Blair
Your loss we count as our loss. Your struggle we take as our struggle.
Tony Blair
No one is to blame for the breakdown in trust between politics, media and the public.
Tony Blair
I hope that people know me well enough and realise that I would never do anything to harm the country or anything improper. I never have. I think most people who have dealt with me think I am a pretty straight sort of a guy.
