[ps those who were inside the inquiry chamber are reporting that there were further shouted protests as Blair left the room]
Thanks for following - I'll hopefully be back when the Chilcot team announce their findings some time later this year.
And, with that, Tony Blair's second appearance before the Iraq Inquiry draws to a close.
Chilcot pays tribute to the audience too, given the importance of the issues to many of those in the room.
Chilcot: This has been an unusually long session - thanks TB for his evidence.
Blair: In retrospect you need a top-level person in the Cabinet Office/No 10 who can go straight to the PM.
Blair: Finally: when I read the evidence of people who complain about resources, you need a different transmission of info system to the PM
Blair: No one nation, even the US, can nation-build alone
Blair: Our emphasis on other multilateral relationships is key - EU defence capability and nation-building capacity, plus the UN too
Blair: Important we keep US relationship together, but be realistic. It will be difficult and hard. We may differ on strategy and interests
Blair: The question people raise is, is it worth it? Is the pain-gain ration worth it? My view: yes. We couldn't hv done Kosovo without US
Blair: The second is on our relationship with the US. The decision shoulder-toshoulder - the US partnership is easy to say, tough to do
Blair: I want to make clear that you need to view AQ and Iran in broader context and look at connections between the two
"Too late" "Too late" shouts from behind Blair - 'Quiet please' urges Chilcot
Blair: I answered that I took responsibility. That was taken as meaning I didn't regret loss of life. That was never my meaning.
