Blair backed as Europe's president
Updated on 15 July 2009
Europe minister Glenys Kinnock has reinforced speculation that Tony Blair wants to be Europe's first president.
She said the entire Government fully supported Mr Blair's "candidature" although the former prime minister has refused to confirm that he is bidding for the post.
There is no official list of contenders for a new Euro-job which will only exist if the Lisbon treaty is fully approved and ratified by all EU countries.
