A man posing as a barrister fled a court in Devon when a senior judge became suspicious of him. Judge Stephen Wildblood asked some basic legal questions which the man could not answer when he appeared before him at Plymouth Crown Court. Judge Wildblood said he was suspicious because the man, who gave his name as David Evans, wore a barrister's wig with a solicitor's gown. The judge said he had informed the Crown Prosecution Service. There are about 60 barristers called David Evans operating in the UK. The man, who gave his address as a printing house in London, was appearing at a preliminary defence hearing.

A Facebook group entitled 'Subversively move Tony Blair's memoirs to the crime section in book shops' gained more than 1,000 members inside a day.
The group's creator, Euan Booth, said the idea was non-violent direct action against a man he described as "our generation's greatest war criminal".
Blair's popularity never recovered after Iraq, and although he won the 2005 election, he did so with a narrowed majority against a disorganized opposition. His third-way flexibility had put off some people, and his messianic certainty put off others. For many Britons, that is, he combined the negative qualities that some people found in President Clinton with the negative qualities that others found in President Bush. There was a widespread perception that Blair's time in office was winding down, which aggrieved him: "I was at the height of my powers, if not my power." He had, he says, "a complete vision of where we should be in the early twenty-first century," and is emphatic about the need for public-sector reform, if somewhat short on the specifics.
