worth repeating
I’m surprised that the Times doesn’t mention that Galloway won a 150,000 Pound reward in a libel suit brought by him against the Daily Telegraph. The Telegraph had reported that he had received money from Saddam. Galloway went judge shopping and used the infamous Mr. Justice Eady who ruled in his favor (as he has done in cases involving Arabs who have sued for libel and defamation of character). The Telegraph then argued that the decision did great damage to the principle of freedom of expression in the U.K. When the Telegraph tried to appeal to a higher court Judge Eady tried to block the effort. Thus it now appears that the House of Commons has taken on itself the task of reversing a great injustice. Thank God.
