Major Criticism for Blair

Former Prime Minister John Major has now joined in the criticism of Tony Blair's decision to commit British troops to the invasion of Iraq. From my personal point of view I'm pleased that a major figure has said what I've long thought; namely that the argument that Saddam Hussein was a bad man is an inadequate reason for going to war! However, I doubt that the Chilcott Inquiry will result in any real action against the people at fault in this sorry saga!
