Tony Blair today rejected demands for an independent inquiry into why the security services failed to prevent the July 7 London bombings.

The Conservative leader, David Cameron, said that only a fully independent inquiry would "get to the truth" as to why two of the suicide attackers were not stopped, despite being monitored by the security services.

However, Mr Blair claimed that an inquiry would divert resources, attention and energy better used by the police and MI5 in fighting terrorism. "I'm simply not prepared to do that," he said at prime minister's questions today.

He said a further inquiry would "undermine support" for the security services, adding that many claims made in the media about what was known about the London bombers were "misleading and wrong".
