It is known to everyone that there are some political issues going on in the Uk governement mainly with Prime Minister Tony
Blair.
Prime Minister Tony Blair was questioned by police as a witness for a second time last Friday, his official spokesman said today.
Though Mr Blair was questioned as a witness for less than an hour, Downing Street declined to discuss the contents of the conversation.
Until today the news were not lifted as requested by Police .
It is said that everything is in the hands of Police in questioning Mr Blair further
The Prime Minister was not under caution and was not accompanied by a lawyer for Friday's interview, said his official spokesman.
The only people present were the Prime Minister himself, a Downing Street note taker and an unknown number of police officers.
It is still not leaked how many police were present, whether they were uniformed or whether they included inquiry chief Assistant Commissioner John Yates.
Because the police requested that news of the interview should not be made public, members of the Downing Street press office team were not informed until late yesterday, when police said that the blackout could be lifted.
"Mr Blair's situation is looking worse with every passing day. He appears to be in very deep trouble.
"He's questioned and then a few days later his chief fundraiser Lord Levy is re-arrested. I'd say this marks another escalation in the police inquiry."
Mr MacNeil added: "It also gives the lie to suggestions coming out of Downing Street that the police have been leaking, because apparently they asked for a news blackout."
