This letter epitomises a decency, modesty and determination of moral purpose that represent another Britain and are antidotes to poisonous Olympic sponsors and rehabilitated warmongers.

Tony Blair is a pariah because he colluded in an act of abundant wickedness, and untold hundreds of thousands died and millions more suffered monstrously in consequence.

Are Blair's numerous roles -- paid consultant to US bank JP Morgan, Kazakhstan, Kuwait and an Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund -- in conflict with his role as Middle East peace envoy?

Anti-war protesters chant 'Shame on you' as Tony Blair launches his political comeback at the £500-a-head Emirates Stadium fundraiser.

Today, the man who partly justified the invasion of Iraq with Saddam's sickening human rights record is being paid $13 million to advise the brutal dictator of Kazakhstan.

Asked why he contacted Murdoch three times in the two weeks before the start of the Iraq war, Blair said, "I don't think there's anything particularly odd about that."

Leveson's suggestion that Tony Blair and Alastair Campbell help determine how newspapers should behave takes us into hitherto uncharted realms of madness.

When former UK prime minister Tony Blair spoke at a university graduation ceremony, Lisa Savage protested against the war criminal with the blood of a million Iraqis on his hands.
