However Blair's electability and legacy was fatally damage, and when Cameron next wanted to go to war, to bomb Syria, parliament did not allow it.

I rather doubt Blair cares - other than politically, there were zero meaningful consequences. He has gone one to make a lot of money since, giving highly paid keynotes (£100k!) and such.
I don't think bombing Syria was ever a particularly serious notion for the UK. If the US had pushed us to though, we obviously would have.
