Btw I think it's quite likely that had you put 'sooty' as leader of the only main opposition party in 97, he would have won

Magaret Thatcher was a keen supporter of the Single Market, she just had a limited understanding of possible implications

Blair, much to his chagrin no doubt, will largely be remembered for his 'with you all the way regardless' love letter support of Bush

It's difficult to understate the long term effects of that intervention.
