Blair's party turning against him

[cal04]

ALMOST three-quarters of Labour Party members want Prime Minister Tony Blair to stand down before September next year, a poll showed today.

Pollsters YouGov found that 71 per cent of Labour members want Blair to leave office before the ruling party's 2007 annual conference at the end of September.

Blair said in 2004 he would not run in the next election, expected in 2009, but he vowed to serve a full fourth term.

Since then, his sliding popularity – partly due to anger over the Iraq war and its aftermath – and damaging headlines over government sleaze and incompetence have sparked growing calls from parts of his party for him to go much sooner.
