Have now read the first three chapters ~ not exactly light entertainment but interesting never the less.  The man is so far up his own arse I guess he had to type it by torchlight.

When the publishers arranged these book signing did they not think there might be a spot of bother. They did after all impose tight restrictions in the bookshops.

More likely they are banking on 'any publicity is good publicity'.

Sadly, Bliar will already have his advance, so even if no copies were sold he will have coined it.

I had to smile at his "protection". In the US it would be bullet proof cars, eight heavies with guns all over them. In Dublin, they opened two umbrellas to stop the eggs and shoes
