As the Chilcot report finally sees the light of day, the former leader’s motives need to be seen in their full context.
From faulty intelligence and inadequate oversight to disastrously poor planning, the Iraq War was a mess from the start.
The Iraq Inquiry should be published in June or July 2016, Sir John Chilcot says.
Labour leadership frontrunner Jeremy Corbyn has said he will make a formal apology on behalf of the Labour Party for the war in Iraq if elected leader.
MPs have reacted angrily to the news that the Chilcot Inquiry into the Iraq War will not report until after the general election in May.
