Zapatero's win puts Blair in dock over question of trust

Although Mr Blair did not intervene directly in Spain's election, it was an open secret that he wanted ­ and expected ­ José Maria Aznar's conservative People's Party to remain in power.

Now the Government must somehow forge a working relationship with the new Spanish Prime Minister, who marked his victory by accusing Mr Blair and President George Bush of organising a war "with lies".

The result in Spain creates a series of problems for Mr Blair. Even if Britain manages to keep al-Qa'ida at bay, the defeat of Mr Aznar's party delivers a chilling political message to Labour in Britain.

By supporting the Iraq war and blaming Eta for last week's outrage, Mr Aznar lost the trust of the Spanish people. Mr Blair already has a trust problem over Iraq, caused largely by the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in that country. The fear in Labour circles is that the terrible events in Madrid will compound it.

2. Blair's Labour is really a right wing party:

"Although Mr Blair did not intervene directly in Spain's election, it was an open secret that he wanted ­ and expected ­ José Maria Aznar's conservative People's Party to remain in power."

This exposes where Mr. Blair and Labour really stand. They want a
CONSERVATIVE, A RIGHT WINGER IN POWER!!!

It's time to vote for the Liberal Democrats!
