The Misfortunes Of Bloggers

Two things:

• George Galloway is suing Harry's Place over some ridiculous thing or other. Rumours that he demanded that they pay him in barrels of oil are wholly unfounded. The statement that his lawyers object to was clearly made in jest plus it was after all no more than a direct quote from the constitution of an organisation Galloway respects. David Toube doesn't appear to be intimidated although given that he is aware of the insane rulings of certain libel judges he probably won't be complacent.
  
• Elsewhere I see that Julia M has broken her hand and reading of the diffficulties of going through the week with one hand makes all the more impressed with the courage of Abu Hamza.
