Alastair Campbell, the top spin doctor for British Prime Minister Tony Blair, has announced his resignation amid continuing controversy over his role in building the case for war with Iraq. Nicknamed England's "real deputy prime minister," Campbell said his family had paid a heavy price for the "real and intense" pressures of his job. He will be replaced by David Hill, a PR executive at Bell-Pottinger Communications and managing director of Good Relations ltd, which has represented Monsanto.
