Tony Blair hospitalised with heart irregularity Put an end to popups!

Looks like he was treated for an irregular heartbeat after being taken ill today- now out of hospital.

Watch for faux-concerned voices suggesting he step down for the sake of his health.

as already said, this is the perfect opurtunity for a face saving resignation.

Hell, he'd come out of it more popular, with a saved public image.

This must be a worrying time for the Blairs, especially as he came to power after the death of John Smith (who died of heart failure).

Its difficult to say at this moment if he will consider resigning. What I do know, is he need not resign to save any face, the guy has the respect of many, and a few raving lefties won't change that.

I guess it all depends on what he and his family feel is best .. I just hope he doesn't resign, he's by far the best we've got currently, and although Brown is a nice chap, I don't think he has the character that blair has.

the problem is, his popularity is on the wane over iraq, top up fees and a handfull of other things, and if the current railway probs on the undeground prove to be because of the privatized maintanence which he even went to court over against the mayor of london, then it is the best moment for him.

Come on, every government has had problems with the railways .. so you can hardly pin that on Blair.

Although there are a sizable quantity of people who have lost faith in Tony Blair due to Iraq, they tend to be Lefties anyway, and who they gonna vote for ??? Lib Dems or Tory .. I don't think so.

Top up fee's and private money in the public sector have created more heat than light within the Labour ranks, but I seriously don't believe they excite the voters much.

I accept, his ratings have been falling, but I do not believe that the term "Face Saving" is relevant in the situation , not like it could be used for IDS !!!!

top up fees are quite an issue with students, and seeing as the tories won't put them in, i can see a lot of youngsters voting conservative on a single issue - people who wouldn't usually vote either.

The tory party is the biggest uni organisation i think...

They are lazy bums. Why should the working man support them. Heck, you get a free education to age 18. Why should the shopclerk in Harrods pay for some kid to spend a few years at Oxbridge. If the kid wants it, he can get loans and pay for it out of future income.

The guy spends a day in hospital after under-going a very common procedure for a minor complaint and people think it's some trick so he can resign without losing face. What a crock of ****.

Trouble is, only the Tory students would bother joining the society because the majority of the student body lazily assume that since most of them are not-Torys, the not-Torys will be more numerous and don't need them to join. And since they all assume this, they aren't.

Only Torys can be arsed.
