    Archbishop Desmond Tutu has pulled out of a leadership event in South Africa - because he refuses to share a platform with former British prime minister Tony Blair.

    Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Tutu said Blair's support for the invasion of Iraq was "morally indefensible."

    The two were due to appear at the Discovery Invest Leadership Summit in Johannesburg, alongside chess grandmaster and Russian activist Garry Kasparov.
