Tony Blair is facing strong criticism after he said he would have gone to war in Iraq even if he had known there were not any weapons of mass destruction.
The former prime minister said it was the "notion" of Saddam as a threat to the region which tilted him in favour of the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
He added that he would have used different arguments to justify the war.
Critics have said Mr Blair misled Parliament and "tailored his arguments to fit the circumstances".

Now we have the truth, key people are rounding on Blair. This is what lies bring you. You always get caught in the end.
