Tony Blair is facing calls for a formal investigation after it emerged
that he breached the official code of conduct for ministers by failing
to show the Attorney General's full advice on the legality of the Iraq
war to the Cabinet.
MPs demanded that Sir Andrew Turnbull, the Cabinet Secretary, launch an
immediate inquiry into whether Mr Blair and the Attorney General, Lord
Goldsmith, flouted the code.
