Tony Blair to get more involved in Brexit debate
Mrs May told BBC One’s Andrew Marr Show that “nothing is agreed until everything is agreed” and said she was “confident” of securing a good Brexit deal.
“It was the intelligence we were given and by the way we were given it for a very simple reason – he was the one leader in the world who had actually used WMD since the Second World War, and had done that to devastating effect in the region with his own people”.
“Twenty years on, I will always be grateful to the people of Worcester who elected me there”. Earlier today, two former members of the Labour Party’s shadow cabinet weighed in on the subject, admitting that they feel people should get one last say on if the European Union departure takes place, after hearing what the final terms are. “As a result, too many are forced to put up with unacceptable, unfit and downright risky housing” – Shadow housing secretary John Healey pledging that a Labour Government would introduce legal minimum standards for all rental homes. I know only too well that being in opposition it can be only too hard to have any real effect on things.
Jeremy Corbyn will pledge to put 10,000 additional police on to the streets of England and Wales in a policy created to challenge the Conservatives in their own political territory of law and order.
In his latest campaign pledge, Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn will say today that the extra “bobbies on the beat” would be paid for by reversing Conservative cuts to capital gains tax (CGT).
The Conservatives plan to cut the higher rate of CGT from 28% to 20% and basic rate from 18% to 10%.
Ministers have previously said that school funding is at record levels, and this will increase further over the next two years as pupil numbers rise.
May’s decision to call the snap poll after less than a year in office caught most in Parliament – and the country – by surprise.
Former Prime Minister Tony Blair and said he was returning to politics to fight Brexit, but has shown no sign of relenting his criticism of current leader Jeremy Corbyn.
Blair said he would be reconnecting with voters due to his worry over the economic damage likely to be incurred by leaving the single market.
The 63-year-old, who served as prime minister from 1997 to 2007, recognised that many in Britain may not welcome his comeback.
Corbyn was, at the end of a year ago, quite outspoken when it came to Prime Minister Theresa May’s government and the leader’s plan for Brexit on the whole. He also acknowledged that he was unable to foresee the chaos that would be created following the overthrow of Saddam Hussein, a situation that, he said, contributed to the emergence of the extremist Islamic State. Speaking to reporters during a campaign visit on his new housing policy, he said: “It’s absolutely up to him what he decides to do”.
Whilst promoting his plans for the National Health Service, Corbyn was snapped walking with party members under the words “Urban Decay” in capital letters on a shop window, advertising a US cosmetics brand.
