Tony Blair's Post-Premiership Activities

Tony Blair, the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, continues to be active in the political landscape through his organization, the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change (TBI). The TBI, with its 800 employees, operates as a consultancy business and a think tank. It advises world leaders on various matters, including building delivery units and policy units. Blair replicates the system he had during his premiership by using a digital box to access papers and provide comments from anywhere in the world. Despite being retired, Blair maintains a hectic schedule, often traveling 60 to 70% of the time. The TBI's revenue predominantly comes from its consultancy arm, amounting to $81 million in 2021. Blair's activities have raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest, as he receives donations from business leaders while pushing tech solutions and policies that align with their interests.
