Another irony of the ending of the Blair years is that his Party claimed when it came to power that it wanted an "ethical foreign policy". And of course the irony is that a British company (British Aerospace) are being investigated by multiple foreign government whist the UK government tries to sweep allegations of bribery and corruption by BAE when dealing with foreign government under the table.
So not only a war to remember Blair by, but a footnote about Britain being made to look like the land of the corrupt and greedy. Thanks a bunch Mr Blair !

Now you're just being silly.
They never promised an ethical Trade and Industry policy!
They are linked. Our trade and industry policy when dealing with forwign nations is also linked to our foreign policy towards that government.
