After a four year Freedom of Information battle the UK Prime Minister's office has released details of the dates of telephone conversations between former Prime Minister Blair and Rupert Murdoch. The documents reveal a series of telephone conversations in the lead up to the UK decision to support the US military intervention in Iraq. The substance of the conversations has not been disclosed. Originally the response to the FOI application was refusal on personal affairs grounds.
