Singh wins Libel appeal
Excellent news- Simon Singh has won his appeal in the libel trial brought by the British Chiropractic Association- a band of notably deluded liars. Hopefully this will be the beginning of a general shift to less utterly retarded libel laws.
Also, does anyone know what's going on with the proposal to update libel laws to cover the internet too? I damn well hope they don't, otherwise I might not be able to call Jack Straw a free-speech-hating, dog-molesting arse-clown.
On an unrelated note, I'm pretty sure this is an April Fool's, but it's still amusing- Greek government files trademark claim for the term "nanotechnology".
