Blair humiliated during last-ever TUC speech

The Prime Minister was heckled, jeered and verbally abused during his last-ever speech to the TUC Congress this afternoon.

He even faced a walk-out by union activists as he began speaking at the Brighton Conference Centre.

As Tony Blair addressed 700 delegates, a group of activists left the hall, including Bob Crow, general secretary of the Rail Maritime and Transport Union.

Then the entire delegation of the RMT followed Mr Crow out of the hall.

Mr Crow said: "What is the point of listening to someone when you cannot believe a word they say?

"In opposition, Blair promised a publicly-owned railway, an ethical foreign policy and full labour laws.

"He has delivered privatisation, illegal wars and the boast that Britain has the harshest anti-union legislation in western Europe."................
