Tony Blair: Eurozone break-up would be 'catastrophic'

Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has said that the break-up of the eurozone would be ''catastrophic'' for all of Europe, including the UK.

Speaking to the BBC's Andrew Marr, Mr Blair said the crisis was the biggest faced by the eurozone countries since the creation of the single currency.

He added the choices to be made are ''very difficult and very painful''.
