I didn't realise that Bliar was quite that recent a phenomenon. He seems to have been there for all of my political life. Not that I paid much attention to him before he started going off on that whole ill-advised Iraq adventure...

Which is all well and fine, but according to the graph, the revaluation of the £ happened in '94-'96 against the D-Mark. So the question appears to remain, even if the name of the British PM has to be swapped to whoever it was before Bliar.
