Blair endorses the Kerry Plan (not by name, but substance):

Blair to seek new UN resolution on Iraq

Tony Blair said today he was seeking a new UN resolution to drive forward the process of transferring sovereignty back to the people of Iraq.

Speaking ahead of talks with President George W Bush, the Prime Minister said it was important that the UN had a greater role in implementing the transition before the June 30 deadline.

He also denied repeated claims that there was a transatlantic rift over how to deal with the growing crisis in Iraq.

He insisted that Britain and the US "share the common aim and purpose" of restoring stability to the war-torn country.

Accompanied by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan after the two held talks in New York, the Prime Minister said: "To find the right political way forward that the circumstances will allow us, at some point in the near future we need to have a new UN Security Council resolution that will allow us to plan the way forward for the political transition in Iraq."
