Good thing guns are strictly regulated over there...

I don't get it. It sounds like two incidents in one night, one of which involved Blair's daughter. The robbers apparently walk up, show a gun, and then run away without taking anything.

How weird is that?

Okay, so in Britain a “barrister” is a lawyer, as opposed to this country where it a person who serves you coffee?

a mile from the £975,000 home her father bought her in 2010

I'm always amazed at how lifelong public servants manage to amass such huge fortunes while collecting the measly salaries the get while "serving" said public.

What a brilliant idea, disarming law abiding citizens for their own safety. What’s next, taking life preservers away from boaters because the coast guard is there to save you when your boat capsizes?

>‘We believe both attempted robberies were carried out by the same male suspect though on the second occasion he was accompanied by another individual.

Not a single word other than “male” describing the perp. Lots of other typical blather, but nothing to help describe the mugger. Pathetic gits. With all the surveillance there, you would think a video of this would be available somewhere.

Journalism and effort to catch criminals are at an all time low.

“a mile from the £975,000 home her father bought her in 2010, and near his own central London property”

Always fascinating to see politicians who have never held a job outside of garden variety attorney, becoming multi-millionaires. He’s supposedly worth 45 million. Very socialist.

Obviously a hoax. Guns are illegal in Britain.

That is one sturdy looking girl. With those legs I don’t think the average car could put her down.

That can’t be true. They don’t allow guns in the UK. Paging Piers Morgan. :-)

That can’t be correct – they’ve solved the ‘epidemic of gun violence’ with strict people control so there is no way that could happen!

It’s a well know fact that criminals are very good at obeying the law….. especially on the weapons they use to commit crimes.

[Have I pegged the sarcasm meter yet?]

SCHADENFREUDE!

Imagine how much better Tony Blair would have felt if his daughter or her boyfriend, or both, pulled out handguns and proceeded to ventilate both robbers. Thus preventing future robberies and saving the crown money spent on trial and incarceration for two weeks before they were let go because of overcrowding in their prisons.

Impossible. Guns are against the law.
