i nor tony blair regarded him as innocent, we judged that the i nor tony blair regarded him as innocentat as to prevent his release. just that. let me also say that whenever you are making decisions about the release of prisoners you have to make a judgment and sometimes those judgments are not borne out by events. every week when i was home secretary i had to make decisions about the release of tariff expired life sentence business, murderers. they were very difficult decisions. idid my they were very difficult decisions. i did my best. we accept that hindsight is a wonderful thing, but did you get it wrong? no, i don't think i did get it wrong. it has to be acceptable, and we have to be grown up be acceptable, and we have to be grown up about this that if you are asking ministers to release people, anybody, includingjudges asking ministers to release people, anybody, including judges to release people, sometimes they may carry on with criminal activities. in this case, as far as i know he was not involved in any terrorist activity or planning against britain on british soil. he was cl

, still think he wasn't a danger, mr blair? danger, mr blair? it is a taut which has prompted a furious response. mr blair says he only argued for the release of these men after pressure from lawyers, mps, the media and the daily mail, whom he says noted after their release they are not bad guys, they are entirely innocent. mr blair also says it wasn't him who sanctioned the payment of £1 million in compensation, that was the cameron government. and tory mps wanted them released quickly. what is going on? in part, it is simply tony blair trying to set the record straight as he sees it, but in part, too, it is personal, it is payback for years of goading of tony blair and iraq. it is also breaks it. newspapers like the daily mail have been at the ce ntre the daily mail have been at the centre of the pro—brexit campaign and mr blairjust the other day called for the remainder is to stand theirground, to make called for the remainder is to stand their ground, to make their case against the referendum and you sense he is trying to g

why is tony blair doing this?for afically second referendum, doesn't that fly in the face of everything people are saying? it could just have referendum after referendum if you want to do that. mouhammed: a very good question. why tony blair is doing it and doing it now. out in his speech later and see how other politicians respond. we have already seen some politicians respond by saying it is none of his business. he has a view and is expressing it now. from a financial markets perspective, it hasn't reacted yet. from that perspective, it is being ignored. i take you back to 2005, the french have a referendum on a constitution for the eu. they reject it. the government has to go back and develop a plan b. that plan b is the treaty. the french send that to parliament. it was sarkozy who did that. the eu has a horrible history of going back and asking the question get again -- question again and finding a way around the original vote. i think matt's question has an interest in genesis in, why is he doing this? is t

tony blair has given a statement.sed from guantanamo bay at the request of the british government in 2004. this followed a parliamentary and massive media campaign led by the daily mail. the very paper that is now supposedly so outraged at his release. the fact is that this was a lwa ys release. the fact is that this was always a very difficult situation where any government would have to balance proper concern for civil liberties with desire to protect our security and we were likely to be attacked whatever course we took. let's speak to norman smith. norman, there is a lot of hindsight being applied to this situation. what do you think that the policical fall—out will be when the dust settles on this? well, i think to be blunt there is a hunt for a political scalp under way as to who is to blame for the fact that the british government was pressing for this man and others to be released from guantanamo bay. then the fact that he was paid £1 million in compensation and then the fact he was allowed to escape to syria,

tony blair says the compensation was agreed by a conservative led administration. responsibility of tony blair. joining me from westminster is the chair of the foreign affairs committee, crispin blunt. this figure of £1 million that is being suggested, disputed by the family, they say it was a share of £1 million and it was paid in orderfor certain covert activities that the intelligence services were involved in and could not be made public, is that correct? that is what i understand and says that lacunae in the law needed to be closed and was duly done in the justice and security act 2013 when this closed materials provisions was put in when you have got security clearance and specialjudges of the person making the civil claim against the government and their representatives are not getting access to the confidential material which involves our intelligence agencies. we were ina our intelligence agencies. we were in a position, when he took a civil claim against the government, that it can be defended without putting the intelligence agencies' evidence into court

he was part of the tony blair thing.s will become more fuzzy. it will become an asset at some point, i'm sure of that. he was a relatively independent member of new labour in that he started as a policy adviser and he always had a mind of its own. the question is, does he have the real ambition because that keep junctures does he have the real ambition because that keepjunctures during the mess that was gordon brown —— gordon brown versus tony blair, there was an opportunity and even an expectation on some on the blair side of the party that david miliband would seize the crown. he always didn't quite want to do it. miliband would seize the crown. he always didn't quite want to do it! certain sense of decency actually. he's not cut—throat enough. he really extracted himself out of that hole rivalry with his brother and so forth and there's a reason he's never ruled it out. i spoke with him a few months ago briefly and asked if he would come back. he said, the time is not really right but you never know. yesterday he said

it is not about john major or tony blair it's about the message. important, as we all know in politics. these two former prime ministers are discredited. if is the tactic, it's fine. fill your boots. if that is the best they've got, i will be sleeping easy tonight.|j would suggest that as time goes on and the economy starts to feel some of the strain of brexit, then the message will carry a bit more weight. the telegraph picks up on the fact that mr major says leaving the fact that mr major says leaving the eu is an historic mistake. he did also say in his speech that he accept the eu is not perfect. it's not all fantastic, but he was highlighting what he felt were major concerns about the government's handling of the brexit negotiations and the dealings with eu leaders as well. quite a scathing attack. its scathing and bitter. it says more about him than it does about the prime minister, who i think is doing a fantasticjob. i think he is going to come out of this worse off than the prime minister is. he is entitled to his opinion and people like y

blair: this is an important point. know there is no way that the many millions of people who feel that this decision is wrong and particularly now think we are going down the right to -- the route to brexit and any custom there is no way for them to articulate their feelings. all these different groups in different political parties who are agitating around this issue are saying, come on, let's think what we are doing here. we have to combine together. and frankly, members of parliament, who at the moment feel, ok, this is just going to happen, so what is the point of me speaking out against it, you have got to give them the strength, courage, the protection, if you like, to be able to say, hang on, my constituents are saying to me we need certain guarantees about this, or my constituents are now saying to me i don't like the way this is turning out. >> are you the right person for this?if you are not , who is? mr. blair: i don't think you need a person. i think you need a movement. >> who starts this? mr. blair: there

tony blair may be coming back in our politics.today are not working class disenfranchised. the majority of the population are entrepreneurs, and people who are in the white collars. i don't think that's true. i think the reality of what you've been talking about, the thing blair corroborated as much as cameron, is the economic devastation that it has inflicted on people, it isn't a working—class thing any more. it is actually most people. most are struggling. the middle class. that is what theresa may keeps talking about. and ed miliband. not having a solution for that is a failure of centrism. the trial of globalisation is dead. we've done well on globalisation. now we are in a retraction of it. now we have to find a balance between protectionism and globalisation. the globalisation of labour has been one of the big forces. the idea that there are migrating tribes of particularly young people who can move across borders, take on employment, it is the stable populations that want to buy homes, raise families, live in the tradition

there's a faint echo of tony blair, when he was saying that theresa may is not driving the brexit busg driven by those hard line euro—sceptics who want a clean break from europe. and john major obviously is haunted by those euro—sceptics who gave him such grief on the maastricht treaty 25 years ago. and he warned theresa may in the speech today to face down those who favour total disengagement from the european union. you've been gauging a bit of reaction to this as it came out. yes, a terse statement from number 10, challenging john major, who praised the remainers and criticise the leavers. number 10 says, we're moving beyond the language of leave and remain because we want to unite the country. i spoke to some remain ministers who privately welcome this. but interestingly, quite senior figures in the government, who are fans ofjohn major, are saying, this doesn't sound quite right — this is not in the spirit of what i was talking about earlier, where he tries to make constructive interventions. and what these fans are saying is by all means raise your concerns about brexit, but if

even supporters of the wall here worry about the economic hit from an import tax.randy blair, webb county party chair:"i'm not as much in favor of that. i think there's other ways to do it." but if it came down to it webb county republican party chair says so be it.randy blair, webb county republican party chair:"if it's spread consumers are going to pay for their own think people will swallow it much easier." delgado, "it's going to be a rough road. we will find a way to new 49ers head coach kyle shanahan and new general manager john lynch... met the bay area media today...at their opening news conference.. shananan is the team's fourth head coach in the last four seasons... and lynch is their first new g-m since trent baalke took over in 2011. both are rookies in their ácurrent positions...however, they've had successful careers. for lynch, it's as a player and broadcaster. and shanahan is considered one of the brightest young coaching minds in the league... as he turned the falcons offense into a top-ranked unit. shanahan says turning around this franchise will take time, but driven to

his history in the party was very close to tony blair's. something like this, i am surejeremy corbyn and his closest supporters will say it is the usual suspects trash talking the party under jeremy corbyn‘s leadership. tony blair came out criticising the party only a week ago. the former shadow chancellor had been pointing to these criticisms as being what went wrong in cold blood. they are now in a situation where even the core support of the party could be leaking. let's remember, for 80 years, copeland since its inception was a labour sea so this is by no means something to be underplayed. certainlyjeremy corbyn will point to the victory in stoke central, holding that seat, as some would say they should, that is also a labour stronghold, but that will have tempered some of the critics. if they had lost both seats i think we could be in a very different conversation now, but it is interesting to note that those liberal critics are still mps have been perhaps less than forthcoming in calls forjeremy corbyn to go perhaps because they know

but mr blair has hit back.ent: it is just a matter of fact that compensation was decided by the conservative government, by kenneth clarke, the justice secretary, and not by a labour government. but according to this intelligence assessment, on wikileaks, fiddler was a suspected terrorist associated with al-qaeda and yet he was compensated. there was intelligence against these people. but the only way that the actions could have been defended is if the intelligence and the sources of intelligence had been brought out in open court. and that would have been to undermine the whole of the efforts of the intelligence and security agencies. the immediate circumstances that forced the government to give him money no longer exist, because the law of disclosure in civil claims has been tightened up. but we do need some assurance from the attorney general that this is the case and that someone like him would not receive a million or however many pounds of public money in the future. intelligence can now be used in court

two weeks ago, it was labour's tony blair. it was the conservative sirjohn major, who said the costs of brexit would be too much for most people. and he warned that theresa may's approach could lead to a second independence referendum in scotland. our political editor, laura kuenssberg, reports. polite words can still pack a punch. a warning from a former tory prime minister to today's, one whose time in office was tortured by europe. sirjohn major's message to theresa may — get real. the british people have been led to expect a future that seems to be unreal and overoptimistic. obstacles are brushed aside as if of no consequence, whilst opportunities are inflated beyond any reasonable expectation of delivery. he fears we'll be worse off, less tolerant, more divided, and that the prime minister's attitude so far won't achieve her ambitions. the atmosphere is already sour. a little more charm and a lot less cheap rhetoric would do much to protect the interests of the united kingdom. you've accused the government of misleading p

tony blair recently called for another referendum.o you think your members would be for a reversal of the brexit vote? >> our members are very clear that this is happening. what they want is for us to happen on a good terms. they want to those practicalities, customs, the labor market, taxation, future relation and the next. that that is transition can be focused without too much friction. i don't think there is appetite for the additional uncertainty that more political ups and downs will bring. they want to see this brought to a logical conclusion. is there is sensitive government is focusing too much on brexit and not dealing with the details that affect businesses on a day-to-day basis? one that is certainly affected many businesses. is there too much focus on one side of the page? >> we have been saying that a ambitious domestic agenda is as if not more important than any eventual brexit deal. the high upfront cost of doing business as exemplified by the business rates today is something we need to deal with if we are going to se

tony blair — who was prime minister at the time of fiddler's release — has given a statement.m guantanamo bay at the request of the british government in 2004. this followed a parliamentary and massive media campaign led by the daily mail, the very paper that is now supposedly so outraged at his release. the fact is that this was always a very difficult situation where any government would have to balance proper concern for civil liberties with desire to protect our security, and we were likely to be attacked whatever course we took". let's speak now to raffaello pantucci, director of international security studies at the royal united services institution think—tank. it is difficult to pick up what's in people's minds? it is questionable what he was doing in pakistan and near the afghan border at that moment in time. it is not always clear that he was really part of a sort of a radical community and it is not clear at which point he started going down that path. but we do know, he spent sometime in guantanamo bay and he came out of guantanamo bay and he came out of guantanamo
