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
One of the things that I've been doing over the past few years is reevaluating my own powers of political analysis.
Tony Blair
