This feature-length documentary examines the prime-ministerial career of Tony Blair and his business activities since leaving office a role that film-maker George Galloway describes as The Blair Rich Project . The once hugely successful politician who arguably transformed the Labour Party and arrived at Number 10 on a wave of popular support and optimism now lingers at the edge of British politics as the Chilcot Inquiry is released, on the defining act of his premiership the decision behind, the implementation of, and aftermath of Britain s participation in the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Combining testimony from prominent observers, ambassadors and statesmen, with extensive archive footage, animation and illustrations from the award-winning political cartoonist Steve Bell, George Galloway sets out his argument that, despite many good things that his government achieved, Tony Blair s actions since leaving office reveal that his over-riding motivation may have always been a messianic pursuit of personal glory and financial reward.
