Cherie Booth's chambers, Matrix, are to draw up the document to impeach her husband, Tony Blair, for 'high crimes and misdemeanours' in the run up to the war against Iraq, it was disclosed yesterday.

The 12 MPs planning to revive the ancient parliamentary procedure -- last used 156 years ago against Lord Palmerston -- have engaged his wife's chambers to frame the motion because of their record in taking up human rights issues."
