I voted for Blair in the election where he came to power. I am that old.

More accurately I voted for the Labour candidate in the Wimbledon constituency. He got a 14% swing to oust a tory which was quite exciting.

I admire Alastair Campbell for sending his kids to comprehensive school and how his partner writes passionately about it. He's a runner as well.

I've never voted anything other than Labour and cannot ever imagine voting any other way. I was incredibly excited after Blair's first victory. He was an unbelievable orator and highly persuasive, backed by a great team. I'm not sure how I feel about him now, but I will never feel bad about supporting him at the time

I've voted all sorts of ways! Labour, Liberal, Independent - I might even have voted SDP the first time I voted... Anyone except Conservative.

As for Brexit, what a blooming mess. Boris should be deeply ashamed about the 350 million. If anyone buys it again God help us all :-O

macca 53
I voted in my first election in 1974 :-o

Have never voted anything other than labour; had TB as my MP and Mrs macca was at the count in 1979 and at Constituency HQ party afterwards. He was a good man and a brilliant speaker but the death of David Kelly was the time I stopped believing things could only get better.
