A senior ex-intelligence official has disputed Alastair Campbell's evidence about a dossier which outlined the threat posed by Saddam Hussein. Tony Blair's ex-spokesman told the Iraq inquiry last year the September 2002 document was designed to set out UK concerns, not "make the case for war". But Michael Laurie said those producing it "saw it exactly as that and that was the direction we were given". Mr Campbell said he had "nothing to add" to the evidence he had given.
