He described Britain as feel like a country which has lost its footing and is stumbling, but seemingly with no choice but to stagger on.
"The Macron (French President Emmanuel Macron) victory (in France) changes the political dynamics of Europe. The members of the Euro zone will integrate economic decision-making. Inevitably, therefore, Europe will comprise an inner and outer circle. Reform is now on Europe's agenda. The European leaders, certainly from my discussions, are willing to consider changes to accommodate Britain, including around freedom of movement," added Blair, saying the 27 remaining EU members will stick together in defending the rules of the Single Market.
He said rational consideration of the options would sensibly include the option of negotiating for Britain to stay within a Europe itself prepared to reform and "meet us half way", wrote Blair.
Blair told Sky News Saturday: "I think it's absolutely necessary that it (Brexit) doesn't happen because I think every day is bringing us fresh evidence that it's doing us damage economically, certainly doing us damage politically."
Blair served as British prime minister for 10 years from 1997, winning a landslide victory that kept the Labour government in power for years.
