Former colleagues confirm that at the heart of the difficulties between Blair and Brown were real ideological differences, and tell how every department of government received different instructions from No.10 and from the Treasury.
Tony Blair and George W. Bush, the two leaders who took their nations to war in Iraq, talk openly about the decision to topple Saddam Hussein. Blair talks of his failure to keep the international coalition together over Iraq, and admits he fears the war in Iraq is a 'visceral struggle' the West may not have the stomach to win.
