Blair 'talked to God over Iraq'

All of Tony Blair's closest aides had "severe moments of doubt" about his decision to join the American invasion of Iraq, Alastair Campbell reveals in his diaries, published today.

Downing Street's former director of communications suggests that Mr Blair was the only member of his inner circle who did not have private reservations about the decision to topple Saddam Hussein.

Tony Blair prayed to God during times of trouble and anxiety, the Alastair Campbell diaries reveal.

The former prime minister's communications chief says that before the Iraq invasion Mr Blair was guided by his faith and regularly spoke to "his maker".
