Tony Blair's evidence to the Leveson Inquiry was sensationally interrupted today when a protester burst in from behind the judge and branded the former Prime Minister a 'war criminal'.

Filmmaker and veteran Iraq-War protester Lawley-Wakelin, 49, who said he was from the Alternative Iraq Enquiry, shouted to a stunned courtroom: 'JP Morgan paid him off for the Iraq war. Three months after he invaded Iraq they held up the Iraq bank for 20 billion.
