yes, tony blair deserves a trial at the hague rather than a knighthood. and imperial honor system, which naked every one from us, we need to jimmie snellville doesn't really have a reputation to protect. so does it. blair can disgrace what's already shameful. tony blair, getting a knighthood in the establishment, sticking out 2 fingers to ordinary people in the hundreds of thousands who were killed in iraq war. his years in office blair sent troops to combat zones 5 times. he also strongly supported the launch in 2001 of the us war on terror that led to the invasion of iraq and as casualties mounted in that campaign, blair face to accusations that he had misled parliament over weapons of mass destruction in the country. that was the largely debunked reason given. so coalition forces could attack talk, radio host and calmness john gone says people have every right to be angry at tony blair's knighthood. i can't ever remember such an outburst on social media about the on his list. i would say 95 percent of people that i've read on social media today and i'v

john, god says people have every right to be angry at tony blair's knighthood. i can't ever remember such an outburst on social media about the honest list. i would say 95 percent of people that i've read on social media today. and i've spoken to in the street of very, very much against. i think it's an absolutely terrible decision. many people in our country now, but in the u. k. believe is a war criminal. they believe we were led into a war, you know, as june got away prediction at the time that was illegal. if he had any real honor, he would have disappeared after iraq and afghanistan. he had enough money, he should a late lunch. he was a great prime minister for a long period of time. he was a brilliant, charismatic leader, but iraq and afghanistan mixed in. no, been the thing, he's room that for many people saying he took their sons to their deaths in the desert and they can't forgive it. and i can fully understand where they're coming from. finally here in russia, the holiday season is only just getting started with the orthodox christmas being celebrated

prime minister tony blair. fran, i wants to get out to you because we are talking about the politics of the u.k.. you are monitoring the politics of italy. where do we stand on that front and how is the view from the fed playing out in the aerospace? -- euro space? francine: what we heard from jay powell is that it is moving the markets more hawkish, but he was intentionally mentioning the fact that growth is ok, though if you worry about inflation, it seems to suggest that a good type of inflation comes from that growth and it is seen as positive. christine lagarde potentially seeing some of those moves. the yield curve is not the thing that we should be looking at. we should wait and see whether there is a consensus that it crosses off and becomes the italian president. it is a weird way of voting. i have good newspapers i wants to show you. some are talking about the president. they are really linking this to the way that the popes are chosen because there are a lot of things that come to mind. you have met

chris, tony blair becomes sir tony from today, why has it taken so long? it has taken some time and it's an additional twist on the conversation even having about the complexities of the british honours system. the particular honour that tony blair has now given comics a souped up supercharged fuel injected knighthood that is more senior than is the one we heard about coming through the results of the other processing of the recipients today, soaps are tony blair becomes a knight companion of the most laudable —— noble garter. this is given dismissively by the queen and there is only a certain number, that you given any one time and you hold it until your death of the spaces that relinquish and can be given to someone else and he has not been prime ministerfor what, more someone else and he has not been prime minister for what, more than ten years. that said, john major, it took him eight years after he lost the election here in 1997 and it was 2005 before he became a knight companion of the most noble order of the garter, so these things do take time

the huge public opposition to tony blair's knighthood. i think they'll do everything they can to avoid debating in parliament. it certainly should be because this is a terrible decision that clearly fries in the face of what the vast majority of people in this country believe and think. i mean, the polls show the majority of people in britain and actually in the united states, believe that the war was a terrible mistake and it was the worst foreign policy mistake the britain is made in sterling, in modern history, we're talking about about a 1000000 people dying in iraq, we're talking about huge numbers of people having to flee their homes. we're talking about a rack becoming a failed state. the whole region actually thrown into thrown into disarray and chaos as a result of, of, of the invasion. so it was an absolutely catastrophic decision, and the vast majority of people know that it was wrong. and it's not only that he took this decision age that he lied to the british people. he lied to parliament. he went behind the back even of the
