Tony Blair

The leader of Plaid Cymru's MPs claims he has a memo showing Tony Blair and George Bush struck a secret deal to invade Iraq a year before the war.

Elfyn Llwyd told the BBC's Straight Talk he had written to Iraq Inquiry chair Sir John Chilcot to say he would be prepared to hand the document over.

He says the memo, which is marked "Top Secret and Confidential" contradicts statements made by Ex-PM Mr Blair.

Mr Blair told the Iraq inquiry there had been no "covert" deal with Mr Bush.
