    The Results are in - Tony Blair is still prime minister.
    It's too late now (for another 4 years) but who did you actually want to win?

    Labour - Tony Blair
    Liberal Democrats - Charles Kennedy
    Conservative - Michael Howard
    Monster Raving Loony Party
    Green
    UKIP (UK Independence Party)
    Respect
    Welsh National Party

    I don't trust Labour after Iraq. I support Lib Dems because they actually Listened when Britain said it didn't want to go to War.
    The Monster Raving Loonies are cool too.

    What do you think?

    I'm not a UK citizen, but I was happy to hear that Blair won. I think he has a lot of courage and integrity.

    (*Waits for the flames.* :p )

    I wouldn't say Tony Blair is bad tbh... he has built a strong economy for Britain. And the question on war is in some ways unfair on him - main reason why he lost some 100 seats in parliament. He can't exactly back off from it when the war started.

    I don't particularly like conservatives views on immigration. What's wrong with letting people into UK? doesn't that make UK widely accepted as a nice place to be? besides... no immigartion... no chinese/indian food etc.

    Anyway, out of the main 3 parties, Tony Blair is the only "leader-looking" person in all
    honesty.

    Sorry, i didn't mean to completely discredit Tony Blair and i respect your opinions (thinking about it now i suppose before the Iraq buisness he had done some ok things), but i still don't really trust him anymore or agree with his policies or manifesto.
