Tony Blair attacks Greta Thunberg, parody music

This 25 November 2019 parody musical video from Britain says about itself:

Tony Blair and Professor Brian Cox reunite on “Things Can Never Get Better“, their 2019 general election song as D:Ream On.

LYRICS:

Things can never get better
So go and tell Greta
To just grow up
No, things can never get better
We need centrist, interventionist
Private sector friendly governance
‘Cause things can never get better

I was telling Modi recently
I’m glad my war crimes
Are kept under lock and key
If they came to light
I’d be in front of the Hague so fast
It would make my head spin
He said, “You mean Alastair?”
I said, “No, that’s my head of spin”
Then I said…

My property portfolio
Would go to waste if rents were low

So things can never get better
Yeah, go and tell Greta
To just grow up
Things can never get better
If I see attacks on evading tax
Me and Goldman Sachs, we’re going full Iraq
So, you know, just dream on, okay?

LIVERPOOL WAVERTREE Labour MP Paula Barker hit back against Tony Blair today for saying that the party will have to diverge from its traditional roots to get back into power. Ms Barker reacted to the former PM’s speech on Thursday in which he said Labour needed “head-to-toe renewal” and a more “moderate” leader. Mr Blair did not state which leadership candidate he supports, acknowledging that his opinion would be unwelcome. Ms Barker said Mr Blair has always been “hostile” to socialist policies: here.

120 years on, Blair gets it wrong again on what the Labour Party is about. Three-time prime minister Tony Blair has a rather strange view of the Labour Party’s foundation — that it should not have happened. Socialist historian KEITH FLETT reports.
