Former Prime Minister Tony Blair is summoned to give evidence on Friday and many will be watching.

Today the former Attorney-General gives evidence. He formally advised HM Government the war would be lawful, but it turns out other very senior government lawyers disagreed with him, saying only another Security Council Resolution could render it lawful.
