I'm on the other side of the pond, but wanted to chime in. I keep hearing that the results were showing displeasure at Blair for supporting the Gulf war, but that overall you* still wanted to keep Labour in charge. But the results seem completely counter to that argument. If you still generally liked Labour, wouldn't they have kept about the same number of parliment seats? If you didn't like Blair, wouldn't you have kicked him out? Did all of the Labour party support the Gulf War, or was it primarily Blair calling the shots on that?
* where 'you' means the country in general
