Tony Blair’s memoirs reveal that dishonesty was the dark heart of his anti-life/anti-family premiership
By John Smeaton, SPUC
Tony Blair's memoirs, entitled A Journey, have been published today and we have a copy at SPUC HQ. Here are some key points from it:
- "Politicians are obliged from time to time to conceal the full truth, to bend it and even distort it".
- On Hans Kung, the theologian and notorious dissenter from Catholic teaching on abortion, euthanasia, contraception and much else: "My Oxford friend, Pete Thomson, always sung the praises, rightly, of the inestimable Hans Kung … a distinguished scholar and author [of] great works."
- repeated references to his support for the homosexual agenda*, such as: "Just before Christmas [2005] the Civil Partnership Act came into force … I was really proud of that."
- On illicit affairs by politicians: "I tended to look upon such things with a fairly worldly eye".
