Blair to quit on May 31 2007

Tony Blair will quit as Labour leader on May 31 next year and then resign as Prime Minister on July 26, according to The Sun newspaper.

The claim follows a day of speculation about when he will step down and demands from his loyalists for him to name a date to leave Downing Street.

The Sun has published what it says is his timetable for departure.

I hope he goes sooner, I'm so sick of him.

Well, that sucks. I've always liked him. He's been an excellent ally for the US in the War on Terror.

I'm sure Gordon Brown will be just as good an ally.

He had better

Seriously, though, Bush and Blair have a good friendship. I don't want to see that relationship go.

I thought it said that he intends to resign on July 26th?

That's was a leaked date. Tony Blair has never stated a date nor confirmed or denied any rumors
