Blair spinning again on Pan Am 103

[This is the headline over a report published today on the website of Scottish lawyers' magazine The Firm. The first paragraph reads as follows:]

Former Prime Minister Tony Blair has refused to address criticisms made by solicitor Gareth Peirce of his role in the repatriation of Abdelbaset Al Megrahi, but has instead issued a two year old “response“ to The Firm on the basis that “none of the facts have changed”.

Readers are invited to comment on blog posts. All comments require to be pre-moderated by me, and I shall reject all (a) that are not related to the Lockerbie disaster or (b) that fail to meet my -- perhaps idiosyncratic -- standards of courtesy towards other contributors. Comments will not be rejected simply because I disagree with them or because I, or other contributors, find them irritating. But comments will be rejected if they distort or misrepresent the evidence; are defamatory; or if they risk embroiling me, as publisher, in defamation proceedings. I am perfectly relaxed about being sued in respect of material which I personally have posted -- but not in respect of material that others wish to post as comments and which, in any case, I often strongly disagree with.

Particularly during my sojourns in South Africa, it may not be possible for me to perform the moderation function speedily. I regret the necessity of moderation but it has been rendered inevitable by the behaviour of a particular commentator whose contributions will always and without exception be rejected.

No correspondence will be entered into regarding moderation decisions.
