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
If there are further steps to European integration, the people should have their say at a general election or in a referendum.
Tony Blair
People always think American politics is very different, but usually it is a predictor of what happens in the politics elsewhere.
Tony Blair
Their barbarism will stand as their shame for all eternity.
Tony Blair
I haven't got the time to sit here arguing with someone whose idea of a coherent foreign policy is what comes up in Google when you type in peace!
Tony Blair
Those who wish to cause religious conflict are small in number but often manage to dominate the headline.
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
I think it is vitally important to study History. If we are going to lead Britain safely into the future, it is essential that we understand our country's historical roots. If we can learn the lessons of the past, we will be able to avoid making mistakes in the future.
Tony Blair
Conflict is not inevitable, but disarmament is... everyone now accepts that if there is a default by Saddam the international community must act to enforce its will.
Tony Blair
There should not be a party within a party.
Tony Blair
How do we deal with not just the acts of violence, but the extremist ideology that lies behind them? Because though the numbers of fanatics that go and join and kill for a group like ISIS are measured in tens of thousands, those that support the wider ideology, I'm afraid, you measure in tens of millions or more.
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
One thing I'm not sure of - and it's a very open question - is whether the type of politics that I represent really has had its day or not. Now I obviously believe passionately it hasn't, that it's still the answer and not the problem, and, you know, the evidence points both ways.
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
I'm the f***ing Prime Minister!
Tony Blair
We in a sense went for the Bernie Sanders model OK? Now we're also in turmoil as a result of this result.
Tony Blair
Saddam was a threat, that the threat had to be dealt with.
Tony Blair
We've seen the reality of Saddam's regime: his thugs prepared to kill their own people, the parading of prisoners of war and now the release of those pictures of executed British soldiers.
Tony Blair
I do not want to end up with an American style of politics, with us going out there beating our chest about our faith. Politics and religion - it is not that they do not have a lot in common, but if [religion] ends up being used in the political process, I think that is a bit unhealthy.
Tony Blair
