Tony Blair has announced he will stand down as prime minister on 27 June.
He made the announcement in a speech to party activists in his Sedgefield constituency, after earlier briefing the Cabinet on his plans.

He acknowledged his government had not always lived up to high expectations but said he had been very lucky to lead "the greatest nation on earth".

He will stay on in Downing Street until the Labour Party elects a new leader - widely expected to be Gordon Brown.

There has been some good things come from his leadership, like the minimum wage but ther have also been some bad things, he has played yes boy to George W*@*er Bush too often, not sure if much will change when Gordon Brown takes over, since it looks a cert that he will take over

I agree, he was Bush's yes boy.
