Blair No Longer Trustworthy, Says Newspaper Poll

LONDON (Reuters) -

Most Britons no longer find Prime Minister Tony Blair trustworthy and
nearly half think he should quit, according to a newspaper poll
Sunday.

It showed most voters also say his record on health, crime, transport
and asylum-seekers is poor.

Beset by questions over whether he exaggerated the case for war
against Iraq and under fire from political opponents for what they
call a botched cabinet reshuffle this month, Blair emerged badly from
the MORI poll commissioned by the News of the World.

Fifty-eight percent of those questioned said he was not trustworthy,
against 36 percent who thought he was, while 53 percent said he had
run out of ideas.

By contrast, 52 percent of respondents thought Chancellor Gordon Brown
was trustworthy.

The poll found 48 percent thought Blair should quit, 51 percent
thought Labour's record on both health and crime-fighting was poor,
while 53 percent thought his record on transport was bad.

Labor is equal with the Conservatives on 35% while the Liberal
democrats are on 19%, according to the poll which was conducted among
1,007 adults on 26-27 June.

Don't forget Blair's a dictator.
He doesn't need to listen to public opinion.
