Tony Blair has repeatedly refused to say whether he will appear before the inquiry into the UK's role in torture and rendition, despite evidence in recently disclosed documents that implicates No 10.

Four former Labour ministers – Jack Straw, David Blunkett, David Miliband and Alan Johnson – have all indicated that they would give evidence to Sir Peter Gibson's inquiry if requested, with Johnson saying he would appear in public. For the last eight days, however, Blair's office has refused to say whether the former prime minister would also be prepared to assist the inquiry.
