Tony Blair’s daughter Kathryn has been threatened at gunpoint in a botched robbery.

The young barrister was walking her dog with her boyfriend and a group of friends when the attackers struck.

The pair were in Marylebone, a mile from the £975,000 home her father bought her in 2010, and near his own central London property.

Neither 25-year-old Miss Blair nor her boyfriend were harmed in the attack, which took place at around 8pm on Monday.

The attempted mugging is thought to be linked to another similar incident in the area on the same night.

The two attempted robberies took place just half an hour apart and both involved the use of a firearm to threaten a couple.

A spokesman for the Blairs said: ‘Kathryn was with a group of friends. No one was hurt and nothing was stolen.’

The group were approached by two men, one armed with a gun, and were asked for cash and jewellery before the suspects fled empty-handed.

Obviously not banned enough

Maybe there's some way to ban thinking about guns,or banning books that have the word "gun" in them.

Or, how about this? The mugger wouldn't have needed to try and mug those aristocrats if he just had enough money to buy bread and milk for his children, or whatever it was he wanted. If the wealthy were just taxed more the government could provide for the people and they wouldn't be forced into criminality.

Those poor robbers must be desperate! Imagine having to approach a groupthat also has a dog? No wonder the poor things wound up fleeing empty-handed.
