'We need boots on ground to beat ISIS': Tony Blair warns British troops may have to return to Iraq and says terror group in not a 'weird cult'

British troops may have to return to Iraq to fight Islamic fanatics and the UK will have to accept a ‘willingness to take casualties’, Tony Blair warns today.

The former prime minister calls for boots on the ground to take the fight to Islamic State (IS) terrorists who have seized control of large swathes of Iraq and Syria.

In a 6,500-word essay on his website, Mr Blair acknowledges that there is ‘no appetite’ among the public for sending British troops back to Iraq following his own military forays in the region.
