I don't think Blair's ego is terribly damaged by this, it's only as bad as someone throwing an egg on an individual basis - polticians are used to it. The securtity services' egos however should be: It's the fact that someone that volatile can make it into the VIP area of the arena that I find troubling. I'm not overly concerned by someone being covered with purple flour, especially Tony Blair - like I said, it's funny. I'm also not overly concerned with F4J's plight - whilst their sentiments are serious their delivery is inane - I really can't take such stupidity seriously. Whilst you're maybe of the opposite opinion, and would support such antics to further their case, many don't - and let's face it this lot have been engaged in quite a list of antics.
Whilst they may be very good at self-promotion, I don't think even they know what they are promoting, let alone all the people who are laughing at them.

They know what they are promoting. It is you that does not.
In future if for example you ever end up in a situation where your ex-wife/girlfriend won't allow you proper access to your children even when it has been granted by the courts and you find yourself beating your head against a brick wall trying to get justice served, then you would be thankful of those who take the time and effort to promote that plight.
Other commentary such as "all the people who are laughing at them" is offensive, dismissive and childish.
