Britain's Former Prime Minister Tony Blair, who won three general elections for the Labour party, says he supports current Labour leader Ed Miliband, "100 per cent" in his bid for the top job.
The former leader waded into the UK general election campaign with an attack on the Conservatives' promise to hold a referendum on membership of the European Union.
The Conservatives have dismissed the attack, saying they are are putting the country first by seeking a vote.
Tony Blair said Ed Miliband had shown leadership for resisting calls for an EU referendum and praised him as "his own man." He denied that the Labour leader was reluctant to be seen on the same podium as him.
