British libel law is rich man's law.
It exists to enable the rich and powerful, be they individuals or multinational corporations, to sue and bankrupt anyone who dares to expose their misdeeds.
It does not serve the poor.
It does not serve the truth.
Even if there was a libel barrister willing to work on a "no win, no fees" basis, Peter's prospective damages are almost certainly not large enough to entice an ambulance chasing lawyer to take the case.
More broadly, I have absolutely no interest in forum wars. They are a diversion and distraction away from important research.
Certain people at the EF abused me, and then put me on moderation over a technicality (no avatar photo) which is currently being breached by one of their very own moderators.
The EF became a home for disruption, abuse, idiocy and anti-research.
It's not worthy of serious contemplation or the expenditure of one's precious time.
I and others left to create a home for serious research, fairly moderated.
Fuck the EF. Life is much better without 'em.
Once again:
The Dude pulls his sunglasses down his nose with one finger
and peeks over them.

Hey. At least I'm housebroken.
