"The issues . . . for voters were Iraq, asylum dispersal and senior figures in the Government."

No one at Westminster doubted the "senior figures" he was referring to included Mr Blair and the discussions would centre on replacing him with the Chancellor, Gordon Brown.

MP Clare Short joined the attack, saying: "I think that the electorate is sending a message to Tony Blair. What we did in Iraq has brought disgrace and dishonour on Britain.

"As Tony Blair won't change the policy, the only way to make a correction is for him to step aside."

Labour backbencher Christine McCafferty said Mr Blair must apologise for the war or quit.
