‘Ten Years Enough For Me – And Britain’
Tony Blair has confirmed his decision to quit as Labour leader and stand down as Prime Minister after 10 years in office.
He told supporters at Trimdon Labour Club in his Sedgefield constituency: “Ten years is enough for me – and the country.”
He added: “I ask you to accept one thing: hand on heart, I did what I thought was right.”
He said he would leave Downing Street on June 27 after a new leader has been chosen.
“Ten years – I think that’s long enough for me but also for the country,” he said.
Referring to Iraq, he said: “I may have been wrong, that’s your call.
“Believe one thing: if nothing else, I did what I thought was right for our country.”
