Blairs 'sell fraudster-link flat'

Tony and Cherie Blair are selling one of two flats they bought with the help of a convicted fraudster, it has been reported.

There was controversy following the purchase of the Bristol properties in 2002 because of the involvement of Peter Foster, an Australian who was jailed in his homeland last year for four-and-a-half years for fraud.

They paid £262,500 for each property in the upmarket Clifton area of Bristol, which included a £69,000 discount negotiated by Foster.
