Tony Blair Memoirs


Recommended Posts

I moved a couple of copies into the crime section in Waterstone's yesterday afternoon.

 

It's the new movement in British politics!

When Tony Blair called his much-awaited memoirs A Journey, he probably expected its journey into bookshops would be relatively straightforward.

 

But a Facebook page was today inundated with pictures of the former prime minister's book in odd places after thousands joined a group entitled "Subversively move Tony Blair's memoirs to the crime section in bookshops".

 

The Facebook page – which had more than 5,000 members by mid-afternoon – urges them to "make bookshops think twice about where they categorise our generations [sic] greatest war criminal".

Looks like he won't be doing any more signings:

Tony Blair has hinted that he could cancel a book signing in London on Wednesday to prevent causing the police "a lot of hassle".

 

The comments follow eggs and shoes being thrown at the former UK prime minister at a similar event in Dublin at the weekend.
