Make-or-break week for Blair at Kelly probe

TONY BLAIR was yesterday facing a make-or-break week as he prepared to appear before the inquiry into the death of Ministry of Defence weapons expert Dr David Kelly.

The British Prime Minster spent the weekend being briefed by Government lawyers on his evidence to Lord Hutton. Mr Blair's part in outing Dr Kelly as the Iraq dossier mole was under fresh scrutiny after evidence to the inquiry was published on the Internet over the weekend.

Left-wing Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn claimed yesterday that the affair had become the prime minister's "Watergate".
