Tony Blair, left, listening to the protester (white shirt, centre top) calling him a “war criminal”
The Leveson Inquiry is a public inquiry following the News International phone hacking scandal. This morning Tony Blair was called to the stand, and whilst he was being questioned, a protester managed to make his way past security into the room.
The protester, believed to be filmmaker and veteran Iraq War protester, shouted the following at Blair:
Excuse me, this man should be arrested for war crimes. JP Morgan paid him off for the Iraq war. Three months after he invaded Iraq, they held up the Iraq bank for 20 billion. He [Blair] was then paid six million dollars every year – and still is – from JP Morgan. Six months after he left office! The man is a war criminal!
Have a look at the incident below. The action starts at about one minute into the video:
