Blair is taking people for fools.

Steve Crowther, the UKIP interim leader has responded to the claims of
disgraced former Prime Minister, Tony Blair, who claims that the EU will reform,
that jobs are being lost and that the UK is changing its mind over Brexit as
"taking people for fools".
“Tony Blair’s latest intervention into the Brexit debate proves two
things: that he is absolutely unaware of his own reputation in the country; and
that he simply cannot stop taking the British people for fools.
“Talk of a ‘reformed EU’ being prepared to 'meet us halfway' is precisely
the same nonsense that David Cameron was spouting before the Referendum. The EU
had a chance to offer reform and meet us halfway before we voted, but they were
too arrogant and complacent to do so.
“The signals they are now sending through Mr Blair and Mr Clegg show that
the EU are not nearly as bullish about their strength in these negotiations as
they have been pretending. Too little, too late – insultingly so.
“Which side in these negotiations is Mr Blair working
for?”
