Feb 17 2003 EXCLUSIVE: MPs PLOT AN ANTI WAR REVOLT TO TOPPLE PM: 'He won't listen..he must go' By Paul Gilfeather, Whitehall Editor TONY Blair faces a leadership challenge over his plans to attack Iraq. The Daily Mirror has learned of a plot involving disillusioned MPs, peers and union bosses. It would be the first such move against the Premier since he swept to power in 1997. One ringleader said: "These are firm proposals." The Labour MP, who asked not to be named, added: "We have the numbers required to mount a challenge. FINISHED?: Wild eyed Tony Blair insists he'll follow George Bush to war "It is now a firm view right across the Labour Party that Tony Blair is finished because of his refusal to listen to overwhelming opposition to war with Iraq." Our source said: "I will not speculate on who will be asked to front this challenge. "A resolution will be constructed and put to a card vote at the party's annual conference in the autumn. If a majority of the conference vote for an election then it would be all systems go." Tony Woodley, deputy general secretary of the TGWU union, warned: "Mr Blair's in real trouble here." In his speech at Labour's spring conference in Glasgow, the Premier said unpopularity could be "the price of leadership and cost of conviction". Ministers yesterday rallied behind Mr Blair. Deputy PM John Prescott said the job of the leader was "to take action because it is right and just". Government Chief Whip Hilary Armstrong admitted that the party faced a "testing time." Culture Secretary Tessa Jowell insisted last night that the Government did not have a policy of "regime change" for Iraq. Back E-mail this article to a friend Forwarded for your information.
