Blair On Saddam's Execution

Tony Blair has finally condemned the manner of Saddam Hussein's execution as "completely wrong".

The Prime Minister had maintained an extraordinary silence on the hanging for 11 days, despite being one of the architects of Saddam's downfall.

The former Iraqi dictator was put to death on December 30 after being convicted by an Iraqi court of crimes against humanity.

Sectarian tensions in Iraq have been heightened by leaked footage showing him being told to "go to hell" by baying onlookers moments before his death.

Chancellor Gordon Brown and Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott have both spoken out against the "deplorable" manner of the execution.

President Bush also said it should have been conducted in a more dignified manner.
