Prime Minister Tony Blair says people are "far too aplogetic" about demonstrators who disrupt gatherings of world leaders and he has urged the public to turn its back on them. "These guys don't represent anyone," he said, "If the people knew their views, they'd disagree with them. I just think we've got to be a lot more robust about this."
