Not being from Britain, I'm not sure how he's viewed there, but I'd figure Tony Blair to be associated at least equally with Sedgefield, the seat in parliament he held for 20+ years.

To be fair, I doubt most of my felllow Britons would know what his constituency was. They would think of him as PM rather than MP for Sedgefield, just as most people would think of Dave as PM rather than MP for Witney.

looking up famous personages born in Scotland (for my own pub quiz) i know he was born in Edinburgh, left Britain when still an infant, returned about age 5 but lived in N.E England, and went to boarding school in Edinburgh age 9 to about 14, and there the Edinburgh connection ends

We accept dozens of different misspellings of Philadelphia.
