Only if we want to get sued. That claim has already been litigated. www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/1994701...

Amazing, you're right. This is the side-effect of local newspapers just being one work experience kid, a Reuters feed and a web template (fit around the adverts, *around* the adverts) - no lawyers screaming "you can't print that!" at obvious shit like this.

What I also find funny is this is the only place I saw it reported. All I saw was Dim Shitman's apology and thought it had been settled out of court. Seemed to have been kept pretty quiet otherwise

Sorry but "it's very funny" should be an absolute defence in a libel trial.

Yeah the Labour press account is going to be absolutely steamrollered and it's going to be very funny.
