    Tony Blair insists Britons do not want Brexit but astonishingly his OWN poll reveals we DO

    TONY Blair has been left red–faced after he insisted voters would choose a different outcome if the Brexit referendum was held again, only to be contradicted by an opinion poll that he commissioned.

    The survey for the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change found that 56 per cent of those questioned believe “Brexit must mean Brexit”, and 75 per cent stated the UK’s immigration policy is too open.

    The 1,000 people surveyed were given three options, a hard Brexit, a soft Brexit or a second referendum, with almost 80 per cent choosing one of the two Brexit options.

    More than 40 per cent favoured a clean break, with just under 40 per cent choosing a soft Brexit and around 20 per cent plugging for another vote.

    The former Prime Minister admitted that “British people’s attitude to Europe is ambivalent”, following the poll conducted alongside Luntz Global Partners.

    YouGov poll shows the public is keen to compromise on immigration as trade-off for access to single market

    It always more nuanced than we might think:)

    Well maybe Muckle Flugga or Flannan Isle!

    As I've made consistently clear from day one here I am a rather reluctant Scot Nat supporter (having voted Labour since 1979 until a few years ago.)

    If England didn't have the unfortunate habit of voting Conservative AND we could have a centre-left administration that REALLY did govern in the interests of the majority of the people then I'd gladly return to the unionist fold.

    Until then.....

    Wasn't that the promise held out by Blair in 1997? A politician who repeatedly went back on his word, oh what a surprise!

    You appear to mistake me for someone who like Mr Blair - I'm not!

    But please let's not have a pissing contest on broken promises / flip flops. Your party does not come out well.

    But we could 'accidentally' drop some off couldn't we? It would be world-class irony if he were to be finished off by a WMD

    Make sure there's enough room for Mandelson, Hain and all the other New Labour dweebs - except David Blunkett who I think really should be leading the party.

    The strange thing is that he doesn't seem to know that he is not liked.
