The Case for War is Blown Apart
'Tony Blair stood accused last night of misleading Parliament and the British people over Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction, and his claims that the threat posed by Iraq justified war. "I believe the Prime Minister lied to us and lied to us and lied to us. The whole war was built upon falsehood and I think the long-term damage will be to democracy in Britain" Tony Benn, the former Labour minister.

'Robin Cook, the former foreign secretary, seized on a "breathtaking" statement by the US Defense Secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, that Iraq's weapons may have been destroyed before the war, and anger boiled over among MPs who said the admission undermined the legal and political justification for war.'

This is opposition from within Blair's own party. Crean and Labor in Australia cannot see fit to make a statement on this 'catastrophic lie', even though they could have a united position and the PM Howard is surely exposed.
