Former Foreign Secretary Jack Straw suggested last night that he may have been sacked by Tony Blair following pressure from George Bush’s White House.

Mr Straw, who was Foreign Secretary during the Iraq war in 2003, was demoted three years later to Leader of the Commons.

Yesterday, he said hawkish allies of Mr Bush may have had a hand in his removal after he ruled out Britain ever joining an attack against Iran.

Asked by Total Politics magazine whether he believed the Bush administration played a hand in his sacking, he replied: ‘People say that. The neo-cons, people like John Bolton, were never terribly keen on me, but I’ve no idea what observations were made through the back door.
