Blair Treated for Back Pain
Number Ten have confirmed that Tony Blair has received hospital treatment for sharp stabbing pains in his back. He was treated at London's Royal Free Hospital and is now recovering at Chequers. Downing Street spokesmen are insisting that the pain is due to a slipped disc, though this was denied by Cherie Blair at a recent Law Awards event.
