EXCERPT:
Tony Blair was accused of supporting Al Qaeda by Colonel Gaddafi who warned him that jihadists would take Libya and 'attack Europe', it was revealed today.
The former prime minister contacted the dictator and urged him to flee for a 'safe place' in two calls on February 25 2011, eight months before he was beaten to death after being found in a sewer.
Transcripts were published for the first time today and MPs said the dictator's fears extremists would take Libya may have been 'wrongly ignored' because he was usually 'delusional'.
In their first call, at 11.15am, which lasted half an hour, Gaddafi told Mr Blair that the civil war in Libya was run by Al Qaeda terrorists trying to control the north African coastline.
