Majority against Blair on the London bombings

A clear majority of Britons believe that Tony Blair bears at least some responsibility for the bombings in London on 7th July this year. Just 28% support the goverment's claim that the bombings happened for no apparent reason. 33% say that Blair bears "a lot" of responsibility for the attacks and 31% say he bears "a little".

The Guardian also mentions the Chatham House (formerly known as the Royal Institute of International Affairs) report which said,

There is no doubt that the situation over Iraq has imposed particular difficulties for the UK, and for the wider coalition against terrorism.

And a comment piece by Steve Richards in the Independent. (pay per view would you believe?) has it that

Senior ministers dismiss these critics with a predictable disdain: "No surprise about Galloway ... Typical of Clare." "Poor old Kennedy misread the public mood." "The bombs in London are nothing to do with Iraq. Disgraceful that anyone could suggest otherwise." "Bad taste at a time when we must unite."

64% of us believing that the government is at least partly responsible for the London bombings looks like impressive unity to me.
