Blair Book's Journey To Crime Section

   
Mischievous shoppers are moving copies of Tony Blair's memoir to the Fantasy and Crime sections of bookshops as part of a Facebook campaign.

More than 3,000 people have joined a group on the social networking site called "Subversively move Tony Blair's memoirs to the crime section in book shops".

The memoir - entitled A Journey - has turned up in various "inappropriate sections" including Horror, Crime and Dark Fantasy.

The Facebook group claims it wants to "make bookshops think twice about where they categorise our generation’s greatest war criminal".

Within hours of being launched dozens of users had logged onto the site with many posting photographs of the book on the wrong shelf.

Euan Booth, who helped set up the Facebook group, said: "This is a peaceful and mischievous way of making your point if you feel the same way.

"It’s a non-violent display of anger using the materials given to me - his book and the crime section - they're both there, I just put them together."

Waterstones denied having heard any reports of the book turning up in odd places and said the memoir had sold "fantastically well".

Mr Blair was pelted with eggs and shoes as he turned up for a book signing event in Dublin this morning, but was not hit.
