  These 515 slander cases will undoubtedly relate to comments on blogs, discussion boards, chat-rooms and the like - the courts invariably treat these as slander rather than libel due to the accepted casual nature of the context in which they were said - sorry, printed!

  Things probably would have gone a bit better if the Europeans had offered more than token contributions.

  3 Brits were killed over the weekend in Afghanistan, one from the Royal Welsh on Saturday and two lads from the Queen's Dragoon Guards killed by a road-side bomb yesterday. Neither incident mentioned…

  This is the first time I have seen a court turn a "social courtesy" into a compulsory contractual obligation. I'd sooner take pride in the fact that my country's courts protect its citizens' rights to choose not to stand for the anthem rather than forcing them to do so. The…

  The BBC is an instrument of Zionist propaganda. In addition to defending Israel’s terrorism and the illegal occupation of Palestinian land, the BBC is an active complicit in Zionism war crimes throughout the Middle East.

  "Massive savings can be had on hotel stays, dining out and shopping.” 2.5 percent drop??? You've got to be kidding.

  Once you add on the insane drop in the exchange rate then yup - Japanese tourists are having a Beano over here at the moment. 210 yen to 120 yen…
