The sister of one of the soldiers killed in the demanded that Tony Blair 'look me in the eye' as families revealed they plan to take legal action against the former prime minister, following today's long-awaited report into the conflict.
Relatives said they had not had enough time to fully take in the report by Sir John Chilcot, having had just '180 minutes, one for every death' to read it, but would be undertaking a forensic analysis of the findings, and reserved the right to take any further action necessary.
And at an emotional press conference following the report's release held by some of the relatives of the 179 Britons killed and their lawyers, Sarah O'Connor, whose brother, Sergeant Bob O'Connor died in the conflict, said Blair should 'look us in the eye', as she described him as 'the world's worst terrorist'.
