I just spent a few minutes chuckling over a story reporting a new Facebook group by the name of 'Subversively move Tony Blair's memoirs to the crime section in book shops'. It seems his book is showing up in various sections such as horror, crime and fantasy, as some members of the public make a peaceful protest against a man they consider a war criminal. What's your take?
Hi Lots2say, and welcome to the Politics Forum!
To start with you might like to read the extended "Welcome" message in the Rules and Guidelines section of the forum, which also includes a full version of the Forum Rules.
Knowing what’s appropriate to say and post and what isn’t can save everyone a great deal of hassle, and as such you might also find the Guide to Good Posting useful. If you’re unfamiliar with the type of forum software we use here, a brief guide to using it can be found here. Please respect other people’s views here; they mightn’t be the same as yours, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re wrong, just that they're different.
If you need help with anything at all to do with the forum, feel free to contact me, or one of the other moderators, via a personal message; our details can be found here, listed as "Minister" and “Junior Minister”.
Perhaps you’d care to formally introduce yourself, which you can do here, or optionally tell us a little bit more about yourself here.
As to your comment, my take is that you might well be right about it belonging in all three sections, and perhaps we'll soon see that you've got lot2say about plenty of other topics too!
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised 'for the good of its victims' may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us 'for our own good' will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." -- C.S. Lewis
