Tony Blair: Millions politically homeless in Brexit Britain
LONDON - There are "millions of voters who have been left politically homeless" in Britain today, according to Tony Blair, as they face the choice of "a hard Brexit Tory party and a hard-left Labour Party." In an exclusive interview with Kathimerini at the offices of the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change in Grosvenor Square, the former British prime minister insists that "if the Labour Party wants to be a party of governments, it starts from the center ground" - an approach that is strongly rejected by its current leadership.
About Brexit, Blair points out that "we've still not seen the terms of exit. What I find baffling about the whole debate is this insistence that we must leave no matter what, irrespective of what this deal looks like. The Conservative position now is 'Brexit at any cost.' But it's highly questionable that this is what people voted for last year."
