Blair's links to Gaddafi worry MPs
26th October 2011
Labour, Lib Dem, Plaid and DUP MPs have added their names to an early day motion calling for "a full independent inquiry into Mr Tony Blair’s financial engagement with the late Colonel Gaddafi".
The EDM was tabled by Tory MP Daniel Kawczynski on October 21.
Since then Jeremy Corbyn, Peter Bottomley, Jim Shannon, Elfyd Llwyd, David Tredinnick and Mike Hancock have added their names.
Kawczynski wrote a biography of the late Libyan dictator last year, entitled Seeking Gaddafi.
The Daily Telegraphnoted that Kawczynski "appears to have had no direct access to Muammar Gaddafi or his ministers" when writing the book.
"It is also extraordinary that a book of this type should contain no maps," said book reviewer Simon Scott Plummer.
