Sir John Major criticises Tony Blair over Iraq war
Former Prime Minister Sir John Major has criticised Tony Blair's handling of the Iraq war and his presentation of the case for invasion in March 2003.
Sir John said he had reluctantly backed the war because he believed what Mr Blair had said as prime minister.

Sir John said it now seemed there were doubts before the invasion about whether there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
