Tony Blair Says that Iraq is Not How He Thought it Would Be After 10 Years

He said there had been "significant improvements" but that "it is not nearly what it should be," pointing in particular to on-going terror attacks.

However, he insisted that the situation under Saddam Hussein was far worse.
