Lord McAlpine pursues legal action against Twitter users

Comment

Good for Lord McAlpine - someone should have done this years ago. Getting libel removed from Facebook or Twitter is not easy ... and such nonsense undermines free speech. This will make free speech easier as the government wont be reduced to section 127 of the Communications Act all the time ... etc Horay for Lord A - the Clint Eastwood of Twitter. So Philip Schofield, feel lucky punk? Seriously they have it coming. As for the BBC and ITV - rule 1 of reporting ... have more than one source ...broken. rule 2 - tell the person you're going to criticise so if it does go to libel the damages will be less punative How can they be so dumb - even the local paper usually manages that...
