McCanns appeal to the European Court of Human Rights

[Mr Gray]

Your opinions aren't the same as mine, no matter how many times you repeat them.

Theyre facts,not opinions..stop telling blatant lies or I will call you out as,a,liar.
Cite for any that are opinions..cite required

[Brietta]

Mário Serra Lopes, from the editor Guerra e Paz, explains that, despite the interest that the case generated in the United Kingdom, no English editor has bought the rights over the work about the disappearance of Madeleine McCann yet.

“The English editors are afraid”, says the editor, who asserts that he has contacted several British editors, who “despite being interested in publishing, fear the McCanns’ influence and the consequences that it may have after the publication”.

Whatever - my opinion is that it makes your postings absolutely untrustworthy.  Not to mention why you bother going to the extent of so doing.

English lawyers refuse to defend Gonçalo Amaral

Madeleine McCann case

by Margarida Davim

Gonçalo Amaral wants to sue the English newspapers and the McCanns over defamation, but he cannot find lawyers that are willing to represent him in the British courts. The editor that published the book ‘The Truth of the Lie’ also guarantees that “the English editors are afraid” of putting the book on sale in the United Kingdom

After having been accused in the pages of the English newspapers of being “drunk” and “incompetent”, Gonçalo Amaral wants to sue the journalists and the parents of Madeleine McCann over defamation. But taking the case to the British courts is revealing itself to be an impossible mission.

“I have been trying for months to find a lawyer in England to represent me”, the former inspector from the Polícia Judiciária told SOL, guaranteeing that he is trying to find “other ways” to sue the McCanns and the English tabloids.

That's a very cherry picking account you have chosen to post which at the least misrepresents the current forum discussion.
I think that's a bit desperate.

[Brietta]

And yet with hindsight it appears everyone in Amaral’s camp knew the law was on his side all along, funny that!  As I suggested earlier, no British publisher would touch such a libellous piece of crap with a bargepole and for very good reason.  They wouldn’t have stood a chance in an English court.

If Amaral was defending the alleged "mistreatment" at the hands of the British press, I think he probably discovered that if the allegations were true he would have difficulty finding a lawyer to represent him.
That is if there was any veracity in the tabloid report to begin with.  Sure were there not numerous reports of him taking various actions against various folk?  For example, the Policia Judiciaria.  He did actually sue the Cipriano lawyer as well as trying to have him committed to an insane asylum.  He lost his case.

[Brietta]

What’s very interesting about your link that it was Amaral threatening to sue the McCanns and bandying about accusations of defamation  before the McCanns commenced their legal action against him!

In the event the McCanns did not take action against Amaral until it became apparent to them that his media shenanigans were damaging the case they were fighting on Madeleine's behalf.

Libel is different in the UK...he would have no difficulty finding a lawyer if he had a case. It's likely no lawyer would take his case because he doesn't have grounds to sue and doesn't have the money to pay

Neither are publishers going to be queuing up to publish any book containing the number of factual errors and lies that are contained in the "truth of the lie".

That possibly includes the makers of Calpol.

Not forgetting that libel trials tend to take a dim view of libellous innuendo.

I posted the part which applied to the discussion I was taking part in, which was why wasn't Amaral's book published in the UK.

Do you never get fed up with accusing others? It's sooo boring.

It really shouldn't be necessary for me or anyone else for that matter to have to repeatedly to point out the obfuscations you post.  Unfortunately though, it is.

I agree it is boring to have to do so ... I think it is the utter predictability and regularity of your misalignments which that does it for me.

Just give it a rest, Brietta. I will post what I want, on any subject I wish and I don't think it's your job to judge me.

Worth noting that again your accusation of me "accusing others" (I suppose of impropriety??) is entirely wrong.  Unless you can substantiate it?

As far as I am concerned - there is only one member whose posting style raises any concerns about accuracy or inaccuracy and that would be yourself.

[Brietta]

Absolutely post on any subject you wish - that's what posting on a discussion forum entails.  Just ensure what you post is as accurate as it can be.  That is expected of all members inclusive of you and me both.

Unfortunately, you've got it wrong yet again, though.

Please note ~ it IS my job to be judgemental.  It is why I am allowed to amend other members' posts with fairness and to sometimes delete them for one reason or another.  This is a job I do take quite seriously and tend not to indulge in meaningless fishwife brawls as a result.

Introducing the first witness for the defence. I can certainly substantiate G’s claim.

That's a hilarious statement. My style is my style, and if you can't understand it I suggest you try harder.
