WILL BLAIR FALL?

Tony Blair's Labour (sic) Party failed miserably in elections this week, and now there are growing calls for him to quit. Supposedly if he didn't step down on his own, he would probably remain prime minister despite these losses, but UK politics confuses me, so I don't really understand how their parliamentary system works. There were also, apparently, big gains by Dutch anti-war opposition parties in their elections this week.

If Blair goes, the U.S. loses its strongest ally. I liken this to corporate executives losing the support of middle management. It's only a matter of time before the stocks fall and the company goes bankrupt. The only fear I have is that there isn't much action going on right now by the anti-war forces on the streets of the West. A corporation could pull out of a crisis if the workers remain obedient.
