Tony Blair scrapped London book signing to avoid protest 'hassle'
Former prime minister worried BNP might have caused trouble, and says he wanted to prevent 'extra strain on police resources'
Tony Blair gave as his reason for cancelling his London Book signing:
"I don't want the public to be inconvenienced by the inevitable hassle caused by protesters. I know the Metropolitan police would, as ever, have done a superb job in managing any disruption but I do not wish to impose an extra strain on police resources, simply for a book signing."

Tony that's Bullsh--. You are worried about the possibility of a citizen's
arrest...and facing the anger of people...especially the possibility
of parent's of dead soldiers confronting you...and of the protests
numbers growing. You avoided it because it is uncomfortable for you,
and you are a lightening rod for people's anger, and justifiably so.
The Torture PM. You deserve no better than the criminal dock in the
international criminal court (ICC).
It is good that you feel the need to hide from the public, or
only venture out when and where you judge it to be safe. and those
places and times will dwindle.
