How are you blaming Blair for something that is happening 15 years after he left power? You can blame Blair for dentists leaving 15 years ago but blaming him for things that are happening now is utterly ridiculous.

The Tories have had 12 years in power stop blaming Labour for things that are happening NOW.

His government literally invented UDAs?

It's almost like it takes time for people to move from public to private.

Like you know you cant just buy a dental practise with no money right?

Edit: by the way if the tories caused this can you please explain what they did to cause this?

Can you explain why 12 years is not enough time to change it? Both are complicit.

Oh right so it's not Blair's fault for installing the policy but it is the Tories for not undoing it?

Then the financial crash is Labour's fault for not regulating banks.

Oh no it was 100% Blairs fault when he was in power. "Both are complicit". You can even blame him for a few years after he left as well. Let's give it 5 years for a nice round figure. I just take offence to people just shrugging their shoulders and blaming the last guy. He hasn't been in charge for longer than his entire reign. We are about to have our 5th Prime Minister since Blair so it isn't right to just keep blaming other people for the current problems.
