Pro-Palestine protester asked if they want to abolish Israel<\/h3>\n

Lee Anderson has expressed his surprise that Sir Tony Blair is being considered for a new Middle East peace role to tackle the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.<\/p>\n

The Tory deputy chairman asked: “Hasn’t Tony Blair done enough damage in the Middle East?”<\/p>\n

The former Prime Minister was forced out in 2008 after he took Britain into the Iraq War in 2005 with the US.<\/p>\n

The conflict massively destabilised the region and has seen the power of Iran and its fundamentalist Islamic regime grow as a consequence.<\/p>\n

Iran is believed to have been behind arming Hamas for the October 7 atrocities which have sparked the current conflict.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mr Anderson was a Labour member and activist at the time of Blair’s Premiership and would only join the Conservatives in 2018 just ahead of becoming the MP for Ashfield.<\/p>\n

But Sir Tony is being lined up for a possible return to Middle East politics, reportedly with the blessing of Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.<\/p>\n

Blair was appointed a middle Eastern envoy after he quit as Prime Minister in 2007 working on behalf of the so-called quad – the US, EU, Russia and United Nations.<\/p>\n

Since then he has become a major figure in the shadowy World Economic Forum (WEF) which he is expected to take over soon.<\/p>\n

The WEF is a forum for mainly centre-left world leaders and billionaires which tries to influence global policy in a number of areas.<\/p>\n
