Ahhhh and there we have it ! A reputable, honest news giver cannot be allowed to prevail can it !!!

No indeed I certainly didn’t but then again look at their list of donors !!!
How can you be Health Secretary AND recieve donation from The Private Health Sector !
Utterly compromised

Both are under attack by corporate America.
Not necessarily by Politicians per se but they’re the proxy soldiers for corporations

True Politics takes over and Starmer as opposed to Carney is a bit of a lap dog to Trump 😡

I don‘t know much about the US legal system, but I do know that free speech is supposedly protected by the constitution and that if you allege libel you have to prove it. This is as much as anything an issue of judgement and courage, by the BBC - which is leaderless - & the govt. Not optimistic.

Hold On your a KC. Let hear a legal
Opinion from yourself as to why or why not Trump Could bring a case here or in the US ?

I haven’t heard any KC opine on this matter yet have you ?
For some reason their opinion isnt being sought - why spoil a good story with fact and legal precedent !!!

So, indeed, Trump can no longer bring a defamation claim in the English High Court. He apparently wants to file one in Florida, but I doubt Panorama was actually broadcast there. Proving damages seems tough in my non-expert view (coupled with higher bar for defamation of public figures in the US).

Joe makes a fair point that Trump is all about grinding nuisance claims and wearing down opponents through attritional costs, whatever the merits of the case.

But I feel like the relative flimsiness of his potential claim is not really getting a lot of air time in this furor.

Maybe but with every legal dispute there are points that need to be proved ? Also what is the jurisdiction ? I’d like a legal mind to make some opinion instead of the en hysteria that everyone wants to indulge in

He’s the President for gods sake. He hasn’t suffered impeachment.
What harm has he suffered.
Although a US court may act against the BBC but what enforcement can be brought here to the UK

Well to be fair those BBC journalist who would have pushed back have fled the nest havent they.
This is just more of the same.
The actual message from trump is directed towards all other non Fascist media using the BBC as an proxy

If BBC is giving the airtime to Regorm then why are the RW gunning for them ?

Is this means tested or is it Universal Basic Income ?

Exactly - Make it so !
Make it about Brexit, so many lies to uncover and highlight.
So much damage and corruption to answer for by the opposition.
Absolute no brainer thus Labour will bite their own nose off to spite their face 🙄

Stop calling him Matt Goodwin. Call him Matthew.
Matt sounds too familiar and cozy for the shit bag that he is 🤔

It is said ‘The Pat in the back, is the reconnaissance for the Knife’ 🤔

Indeed. Perhaps the CEO’s who have pushed for driver only trains will reconsider their actions.
