Nothing else on Google at all. Someone has killed this "story" and if it wasn't the great man David Lindsay it was someone very close to him. Next time we hear any of this if we ever do, it will be when the Mail and this Eccles woman are in court.

The Mail "stories", the Mirror and RT reprints from three days ago presumably before you had a chance to warn them off, and nothing else anywhere.

And why?<br /><br />Making the privacy law statutory as the price of reversing the burden of proof in libel actions. That would be the deal.<br /><br />But yes, if you libellously accused someone of a criminal offence, then, in addition to damages and costs, the court ought also to be able to impose a sentence up to the maximum for that offence.<br /><br />Thus, if this ridiculous Eccles non-journalist, who did not even know where the Islands in question were, had named individuals, then she would now be facing a maximum sentence of life imprisonment and a probable sentence of several years. As would Paul Dacre.<br /><br />What with the recess, there cannot be an EDM, or questions in the House, or whatever. But that just makes the <i>Mail</i> lucky. We certainly have people on the case. The Overseas Territories have very loyal and very powerful friends.<br /><br />As, come to that, has the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, which the <i>Mail</i> has certainly traduced and possibly libelled, seriously damaging its work on St Helena and Ascension Island.David Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06839882674758833524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25656996.post-39481695586111683792014-07-19T19:38:46.647+01:002014-07-19T19:38:46.647+01:00You are smarting, aren't you?

This "story" was completely false <i>and the Lucy Faithfull Foundation say so</i>.<br /><br />It was probably just someone sacked for being incompetent or whatever and out for revenge. A competent reporter would have rejected it, a competent editor would have sacked any reporter who brought it to his desk. It should all come out in court.<br /><br />But bring back criminal libel, David?
