    He seems to have found a minor minor distributor or something that may have shown it. Briefly. Which has allowed him to sue I think. Read the BBC article.

    Whether he'll win or not? Well it'll keep getting bumped up the US courts until it gets to the high court which is stacked with his appointments won't it? Besides, his track record on this stuff isn't to win, it's to bully into a payout.

    Trump is a cunt. But also the BBC (or their contracted parties) fucked up big time. Chat shit get banged.

    I’m not sure why he’s a cunt for suing them though. There’s a lot of it going about and people (Joey Barton, that gobby cow off of the Apprentice) have been fucking around and finding out that you can get sued for mouthing off.

    The BBC shouldn’t be impregnable because it’s publicly funded. They should be more careful with our fucking money.

    Joey Barton was prosecuted. Seems absurd to me and I'm pretty Left.

    He was sued, then prosecuted.

    I don't think you should be able to send a message to millions of people saying that someone is a nonce without any comeback.

    There was a line on Today this morning that there's something in Trump's defamation action around the fact the BBC carries weather reports for Florida as evidence of the publication to an American audience. Which sounds ludicrously flimsy.

    So the lovely family man and war hero who ran everyone over turns out to be a nasty cunt who was kicked out the Marines for continuous offences (after never going overseas) and bit a man’s ear off a few months after.

    His barrister making the point he hasn’t offended for 30 years (more likely been caught/prosecuted) but that nasty side certainly came out that day.

    Hopefully he gets a life sentence shortly, the sobbing self pitying prick.

    Will serve 2/3 and time on remand counts as double. So will do about 13 years.

    A quite pathetic sentence.

    That’s quite a slow door.

    But I’m pretty sure sentencing guidelines he inherited have not changed.

    And that's fine. The prosecution was the absurd bit.
