Blair challenges wife’s critics to report any wrongdoing to police

BRITISH Prime Minister Tony Blair last night directly challenged critics of his wife, Cherie, to put any evidence they had of “criminal, illegal or improper” behaviour to the proper authorities.

"I think everyone's had their pound of flesh and now it's time to move on," said Mr Blair.

His latest intervention, speaking in the Danish capital Copenhagen where he is attending the European Union summit, came after another day of revelations in the controversy over the Blairs' use of convicted fraudster Peter Foster to help them buy two flats in Bristol.
