Anti-war protester David Lawley-Wakelin interrupted Tony Blair as he was giving evidence to the Leveson Inquiry into Press Ethics on 28 May 2012: “This man is a war criminal, he should be arrested.”

Grace McCann attempted a citizen’s arrest on Tony Blair when he appeared at the Iraq Inquiry in January 2010.

Kate O’Sullivan made a citizen’s arrest on Tony Blair in September 2010, at a book signing in Dublin, Ireland.

The list of places where Tony Blair must look over his shoulder for protesters during his endless carousel around the global lecture circuit now includes Hong Kong, after a speech on faith and globalisation was interrupted by an activist seeking to make a citizen’s arrest on the former prime minister.
Such protests have become an increasingly common feature of Blair’s agenda since he left office. Last month, his testimony to the Leveson inquiry into the media was interrupted by an activist who shouted that the former PM should be arrested for war crimes. David Lawley-Wakelin, 49, gained entry to the room at the Royal Courts of Justice via an unguarded rear staircase.
