More wriggling by Tony Blair
I would suggest this was disinformation, but knowing the British Labour Party, this is doubtful.

While we're on the subject of disinformation, here are two Canadian articles (the first by an appeasing diplomat, the other pro-heavy war) that suggest that the very public disagreements of policy makers in Washington could be disinformation. Ah, but that politicians would be so devious when dealing with matters of state and not just with matters of self. (You'll excuse me if I see top military officials as politicians too. I'm a realist).
