Labour MPs praise Cherie Blair for ‘honest’ statement
She called on the media to “lay off” the Prime Minister’s wife and said it would take a “pretty warped human being” not to draw a line under the affair.
“Cherie’s statement tonight would have been seen by millions of people and what shone out from her statement was her honesty, her directness, her courage in making the statement, her sense of regret that she had been the cause of all this difficulty for the Prime Minister, for her family... it’s impact on the Government,” she told Channel 4 News.
