'The Kaleidoscope Has Been Shaken' | Blair’s Speech After 9/11

The year is 2001. Just three weeks after the September 11th attacks, Tony Blair takes the stage at the Labour Party Conference to deliver one of the most pivotal speeches of his career. Fresh off his second landslide election victory, Blair sets out his vision for a world reshaped by 9/11, encapsulated in the iconic line: “The kaleidoscope has been shaken.” Broadcaster and journalist Adam Boulton, who attended the speech, says it is one of Blair's most influential. While some elements of the speech haven’t stood the test of time, this moment captures Blair as an intensely ambitious and confident leader at the peak of his political power.
