The Lockerbie Case: Further Ashton-McLetchie correspondence

Further Ashton-McLetchie correspondence

A further exchange of letters between Megrahi biographer John Ashton and Scottish Conservatives justice spokesman David McLetchie MSP can be read here.

The Megrahi: You are my Jury website now contains downloadable versions of documents relevant to the appeal which was abandoned when Abdelbaset Megrahi was released on compassionate grounds. These were previously available only on the Megrahi: My Story website. The advertisement for John Ashton's book on the publisher's website can be read here.

McLetchie truly is a disgrace. He publicly scorns here those who simply seek justice. I can't believe he has committed such comments to print.

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.
