Also, he brought down nhs waiting times, raised the standard of living in the UK, gave operational independence to the BoE. The £ was stronger and currency that other countries liked to hold. He did a lot of good in the UK. And now after 14 years of Tory rule, the UK is a lot poorer now. In fact on every metric everything is worse.
@@It-che-Pu-whole at the cost of millions of life... Civil wars, Islamic State and now a corrupt government 👍 The price was too high and it only benefited Iran 🤫
It never made any sense to shore up the Communist Chinese party. I believe the false assumption was that the Soviet Communists had propped up the rest of the world's communists so when the USSR fell, that the CCP would fall also, which obviously didn't happen
He's a right-wing plant interviewer. Look at all his guests, and the questions he asks. The moment he asks a tough question, is the very moment he stops getting these interviews. Think how difficult it must be for an ordinary start-up journalist to get these interviews... and there's your answer. Go figure. PS. Lex Friedman falls under the same basket. Joe Rogan is the OG who did it all from the ground up, but now he's so big. And he's interviewing left, right and centre because he's so much in demand and raking in so much cash.
@@BallyBoy95 Blair was complicit if not directly involved in the assassination of Dr. David Kelly a UN weapons inspector. Complete scumbag and I hope he rots.
@@BallyBoy95 You are just another SNOWFLAKE.. a puppet of the billionaire class. Tony Blair is a NEO LEFTIST, just like you. Why only Iraq, @BallyBoy? How about Afghanistan, Syria, Libya? and what were the roles of your F British EMPIRE, serving as a puppet to the US imperialist, in the Ukraine war? did your intelligence service orchestrate and support the 2014 coup? Joe Rogan, like Tucker Carlson, has had people like Green Greenwald, Jimmy Dore, etc. on his show several times. people who always challenge the establishment's narratives on Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, Israel, Ukraine, etc. These people are the real left, not the NEO LEFT, the pro war, pro regime change as the NEO LEFTs are. DEVIDE ET IMPERA. Using this tactic, you colonized other countries for hundreds of years. Now, your own government is doing it to you. Let's see how long you, your country, your community, your culture are going to survive.
Wrong answer. The West peddled their democratic and economic values for access to Chinese markets and labour. There's still some hangover from that in the way they mollycoddle newer non-liberal regimes like India. They should instead focus on building strong domestic economies and exporting high quality, higher technology products to the rest of the world. The rest of the world should be primarily used for sourcing raw materials and human and intellectual resources as needed.
Finally, someone on this channel who doesn't reek of Sinophobia. China has opposing views from the West, but they're not monsters. They've freaking lifted some 800 million people out of extreme poverty in the last half century. They're 17% of the global population. Yes, there are many things wrong with China, like how there are many things wrong with Western countries. The Chinese are people like the rest of us and deserve to be part of the world and have input on global matters.
I mean I think there is a false equivalence, China is a dictatorship. So it’s not that they have differing opinions. I think there are a lot of people in the camps in western china that might disagree with your statement.
@@JamesR1986 So you think that increased share profits for Volkswagen or Goldman Sachs are a "Civilizational reward? Admitting China to the WTO was to be blunt, stupid.
@@dvosburg1966 It even seems like China invaded the United Kingdom and not the other way around. says the country that is a puppet of America that supports all the shit that this country does from coups d'état to color revolutions and terrorist groups and the genocide in Palestine to proxy wars and even supporting neo-Nazis to Ukraine no wonder more than 50 countries want to join the brics the global south is getting fed up with their games
If not asking one tough question to any of your interviewers falls under the category of "comprehensive interview" then what's the point of our education system? Why even think for ourselves? Who needs democracy, we're all sheep anyways.
I feel like that when lky changed our 😮mother tongue to English it was a good choice and at the same time a really bad choice too as we have certainly lost our mother tongue plus our ethnicity/ culture and forced to learn British/ American language which it isn't our native language our native language are Cantonese/hainanese/hokkien/ teochew and Chinese etc we all have lost that touch to our own cultures. Ever since then Singapore isnt really Singapore anymore. We don't even know how to speak Chinese or even matter if fact speak proper English our schools aren't as world class as it seems we got the other end of the stick while the rich people get ( better teachers and better education for q very high price point) we keep mixing English Chinese and hokkien or English and malay or English and hindu etc basically singenglish which i doubt thats what lky wanted tbh. We all are bloody stressed and money driven to be very frank because our starting salary isn't high ($2-5k) after college which includes the cpf that our government takes from us to use for housing and medical and other stuff but whatever is in the cpf cant be used at all not even when ur retired and old unless ur died or move to a different country then yes all could be taken out. Even with 1 million can't survive in this country tbh all the bills will suck you dry up! HDB/ BTO "supposed" to be cheap for Singaporeans if actually anyone looked up average price is $400k -$1 2 million depending on how many rooms and location too theres one room as either bomb shelter/ study room/ Storage room bedrooms are 3-5 rooms which includes the stuff i just said you can't rent your house for 5 -10 years out at all. Don't forget all the loans mortgages house bills you gotta pay for. Its really not Worth it staying here unless you're an expat then yeah go ahead sure. We aren't crazy rich Asians at all. We are very poor actually.
How long has the UK been a competitor? A completely financialized country, China dominates 37 of the 44 most important technologies, which of them does your country dominate? It was your country that believed in the rubbish of neoliberalism and wanted to be a puppet of American imperialism, don't blame other countries for the choices you make yourself

As if Blair would ever admit to having regrets about anything
Tony Blair 😂
What a clown... He fuqed up more Then he positive contribution with...
Just look at his weakness about the iraq war....
Also, he brought down nhs waiting times, raised the standard of living in the UK, gave operational independence to the BoE. The £ was stronger and currency that other countries liked to hold. He did a lot of good in the UK.
And now after 14 years of Tory rule, the UK is a lot poorer now. In fact on every metric everything is worse.
@@It-che-Pu-whole at the cost of millions of life... Civil wars, Islamic State and now a corrupt government 👍
The price was too high and it only benefited Iran 🤫
Wrong, there were plenty of ppl screaming at the time this was the wrong idea, and the same with his immigration policies
It never made any sense to shore up the Communist Chinese party. I believe the false assumption was that the Soviet Communists had propped up the rest of the world's communists so when the USSR fell, that the CCP would fall also, which obviously didn't happen
Just admit it. You thought trade would bring liberalisation but it's enriched a determined enemy.
Did you have the guts to ask him about Iraq ?!

@@BallyBoy95 Fuck I would give everything I have to just ask this guy one question about David Kelly.

blair has literally conducted hundreds of interviews about iraq. there is a 15,000 page report solely based around interviewing him on iraq.
Dumbest PM ever. As a college student back then, I could have forseen it but the profits were too large to ignore
He should have had known it earlier- before strengthening CCP.

And how many did they kill during the Great Leap Forward? Idiot.

Tony Blair, former prime minister, English is very fluent in French and once interviewed on French television on the show c'a vous
This guy destroyed Britain
Since when has the tactic of making your enemy stronger ever been a good idea?
This is video game logic. Except even Civilization rewards you for mutual beneficial actions with other nations.

This guy is a clown....
Blair was a solid statesman, UK hasn’t had as strong a leader since. We got Cameron and Boris…..
Brown was good at policies.
War criminal.
Blair only regrets not being under the table without wearing knee pads.
Stay as classy as you are...
He still doesn't get it.
This is another eye-opening segment; thank you for conducting such a comprehensive interview. Very well done.

Missed question. Why you help your enemy/ competitor
