McAlpine Statement: Sights Trained on Sally
Lord McAlpine says he will drop action against any tweeters with less than 500 followers. His lawyers will be focusing on one high-profile social media junkie:
“Whilst I reached a settlement last year with both the BBC and ITV, I would like to now draw this unfortunate episode, forced into my life, to a close.
I have dropped all claims against those tweeters with less than 500 followers, in return for a very modest donation to BBC Children In Need, which funds 2,600 projects supporting disadvantaged children and young people in the UK.
I have requested that my lawyers, RMPI LLP, focus on the action against Sally Bercow and that damages arising from this are donated to a charity of her choice. I am not intending to make any further comment on this matter.”
He’s not backing down…
Neither should Sally back down. Game on!
Can we not send her to Romania?
A charity of her choice? WTF? It’ll go to Common Purpose then.
I would say that the Political class are mirror images of Sally.. What would you expect? They are all that far up their own arses they cant see the Wood for the Trees.. Lets spell it out.. They have allowed the Global financial system to become so corrupted it is failing. They dont have any answers as that would be an admission of failure.. Their failure, and they know that failure leads to political death, so they wont admit, and it wont get fixed.. We are fu-ked and you can kiss goodbye to your pensions your jobs etc etc.. By the time these economic terrorists are finished your pension wont buy you a packet of crisps
The Political class have done the same thing to our legal system. ECHR has allowed smart arsed Lawyers with vested interests to sucessfully argue our legal system up its own arse thus rendering it unfit for purpose on many levels.
Lord McAlpine says he will drop action against any tweeters with less than 500 followers.

It would be much better to make sure the money goes to a charity she does not approve of.
Just the usual ME fund then.
She’ll donate it to research into shortism.
You want that in a burger?
Only if it’s real meat supplied by a very dodgy supply chain.
What’s Romania done to deserve Sally Sillycow?
Well
They. Have. Lot of horses. She can. Commune with .
Sally should not back down. This self righteous Maggie Man should piss off back to the hole he crawled out of. Sally said nowt wrong, never accused him of anything.
That will make a change then. Up to now, she has said nothing right
What is Twitter? *innocent face*
Well she won’t mind being taken to court then. Get the cheque book ready John.
Can’t wait to see her call David Icke, who McAlpine has conspicuously not mentioned, for the defence.
charity of her choice?and he isn’t backing down!the brave Sir Oscar /Robert
The thing is that Bercow was commenting on stuff that had been reported in the mainstream media. Alright, McAlpine wasn’t NAMED, but all the hints as to his identity were there in the Newsnight report for all to see.
If McAlpine wins, this will mean that nobody will be able to speculate on media reports any more, and that means Guido too. Having your blog hosted somewhere in the Caribbean isn’t a defence in a British libel trial whatever the press like to claim about bloggers being exempt from libel law; they only say that to use as a smear against bloggers when trying to play themselves up, and play bloggers down. Guido says it because he thinks it sounds hard, and fat boys who punch like my little sister like to say things that make them sound hard. Fact is that what matters in a British libel trial is where the information was read – and that means here in the UK.
McAlpine’s action, if successful could have enormous consequences for all bloggers in the UK – and that includes for this blog too. Just because you don’t like Bercow is no reason to want a success for McAlpine. You may as well get back at your next door neighbour by setting a 50 megaton nuke off in you own sitting room. Yes, it’d get your neighbour, but it’d get you too… and make a mess of your new carpet.
Slap the bitch down Bob.
Hey Sally give me a bell. Boaz.
Is beardy boaz a peedo? *saying nothing*
Nothing proven yet. All of his teen passions seem to be just old enough!
Don’t forget to wear your built up shoes Handy or we will look stupid standing next to each other.
leon brittan
excellent, hopefully McAlpine and Sally will somehow be able to blame this on the poison dwarf himself. Don’t know why she didn’t mention the more obvious and guilty candidates at the time. It’s a bit of a shame in a sense that the paedo MP’s are cross party, therefore they’ve all got something to hide.
The expected immigration surge of millions of Romanians is less likely now, as we’ve eaten all their transport.
No they sold their ‘transport’ to Findus they will be coming first class.
Brilliant.
McAlpine has yet to deny the accusations that were made about him in the Scallywag magazine 25 years ago!
Yet another establishment cover up.
http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=60135
As I understand it McAlpine has not disputed the events took place just that he was not the guilty party. In which case he has known this for 25 years but not spoken up, thereby knowingly preventing any investigation into the identity of the real culprit —– why would he do that?
That’s bollocks. Lord McAlpine has only been to Wrexham once (and he was accompanied at all times while there). Somebody else called McAlpine worked at a Wrexham childrens’ home.
I am going to start researching Leon Brittan.
magpies men were bold and brave and being beyond reproach they tempered her policies
Rubbish. Scallywag went bankrupt years ago and the editor is dead. Lord McAlpine has only ever been to Wrexham once and has never been to the home in question. The man who accused him has withdrawn and apologised. Lord McAlpine has accepted that apology and has not issued a writ against that individual.
So prove it.
Watch an learn.

My truth is my truth – the whole truth and nothing but the truth – don’t need to worship any false gods / idols or at any alter of any cult of delusion.
Didn’t McAlpine keep the cash he got from the beeboid and ITV.
Its only any more cash he will pay to charity.
Clever boy, maybe he thinks everyone’s forgotten he pocketed the first lot.
Don’t forget his legal shyster’s got a nice big fat cat fee as well.
oh and I hope it all gets taxed properly – invite here to HMRC – get stuck in.
Sooner Sally Sillycow gets sorted out the better. She is a complete pain in the rectum and is so far up herself it must hurt.
It will be really fun to McAlpine tear her a new one!
Game on!!
No doubt Bercow would be far up her, if only he could reach…
…and hopefully the other @rse Mombiot will get it in the wallet.
I think the way that Lord McAlpine has conducted himself throughout this sorry saga has been exemplary. I especially commend his fashion sense and his rather refined selection of choice khaki suits whenever he has given a TV interview. It rather demonstrates that there may be a resurgence in high-end couture, something we haven’t seen since Wolsey’s time. I certainly hope so.
Roger Moore safari suit would look very dashing.
Absolutely! I’m glad at least one person on this board has the same sense of refinement. Why are we kahki loves in the minority? Well, I think the reasons go back to the Middle Ages, possibly even earlier, but I hope we are now seeing a revival in fashion sophistication. It might just lift us out of this awful mess if men started wearing ties, for instance, in addition to khaki trousers. Even that silly Bagshawe girl might come back!

Khaki and puttees are the future of fashion.
Did they ever go out of fashion
Can anybody help me? I have been trying to buy a nice new cardigan in
n*gger brown for ages now. I do get some dirty looks from the market traders
when I ask if they have any in that colour. Maybe the colour has gone out of fashion.
Khaki and wacky baccy might rhyme but they don’t mix.
They don’t rhyme down South, assuming you are not using warky barky.
Odd bit of news today:

Definitely game on for this libel case.
I’m with sally on this one.
I view it as a fundamental freedom to spout shit. its what i live for.

Just because it isn’t a school week Owen it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t shine your shoes very day.
Eyes’ll shine ‘em if yo name’s Murdoch, yessir!
So more funds will find their way via a left supporting charity into the Labour party coffers.
Is she still YOLOing (You only live once) with 20-something drunk Tory researchers?
I hope McAlpine wins. Sally Bercow is a scumbag chav, her brain is in neutral while her mouth is in overdrive.
John Bercow makes a laughing stock of parliament, he should resign.

Fuking fuckwitted fuck of a fuck.
Funny how he never went after Scallywag when they ran the story. He’s a grade A first class Nonce of the highest order, I should know I have photos of him balls deep in an Eight year old Welsh lad. I’m round the front completing the spit roast, Cliff took the photo.
Serves her right. Sally Bercow puts the anti into social media with her sneering tweets and shameless self-promotion.
*+1*
Like protecting violent nonces do you? Old Mac is a guilty as fuck as is Lilly, Portillo, Derek Laud, and a whole lot more.
The ruling classes get huge kicks from fucking children, fact.
That’s because they are all lizard people from the plant Crraghzz.
No Labour or Union types in your “Ruling classes” then?
No that’s all standard union procedures in among some of the old boys of the left-wing bent too. Mark Oaten? Need I say more.
I said Mr Thatcher had nonces in cabinet so could have her way, you stopped that why??
He should bankrupt her
I’ll put it on expenses.
Merry Christmas Sally,
You ho ho ho

Are you looking forward to Valentine’s Day Sally?

Police were involved in Savile cover up:
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/claims-that-former-police-inspector-acted-for-jimmy-savile-8502976.html
The Sussex police report is out as well, in which the police detail ‘Inspector 5′ who was Savile’s inside guy.
She’ll have to go out on the game.
We thought she was already but for most of us it was feebies.

Job interview: “What’s your greatest weakness?” “Honesty.”

Koba Davitashv!li (Georgian Dream Party: / Fat Guy) : called Sergo Rat!ani (United National Movement Party: Center-Right) a ‘snake’.
Georgian Dream Party is currently in power in Geogia’s: Georgian Dream Coalition. That coalition comprises 6 parties, and is broadly left-liberal.
The Party is controversial. It was set up by French citizen: Ivanishv!li, a billionaire (oligarch). He was trying to get the constitution changed to get political rights as a non citizen. Essentially this is NATO / Europe’s dog in the race.
http://civil.ge/eng/article.php?id=24683
When they came into power, it was a bit of a shock.
United National Movement Party is Saakashv!li’s party which was previously in power.
So here, Europe provoked Georgia with an insult and Georgia hit back.
Goddam commies. They must be fluoridating the water.

It seems that the most important story today is a cute kitten. Either thats a subtle attack on Leveson, or they’ve been hacked by thedailymash.

He will back off the rest and may try to make one example of her, but that is unlikely.
This is not new news either. Apparently been on the RMPI web site for a few months. Particularly the back down on < 500. He cannot do all in one go for PR reasons.
And I just want to say before I go, I know some of you were offended by my jokes– the rest of you, I’ll get around to, next time!
Fuck you very much, you’ve been a wonderful Vicky Pryce jury! Good night!
It’s exactly like the time Guido and Mad Nads got together to sue Gordon Brown. Obviously except for the whole “not backing down” bit.
Ah yes Gordon Brown, the servant of the people.
MY ARSE.

Neither should she back down. It was not libel. Fuck off you old bastard. You distracted us from Richmond, Islington and elm guest house for a while.

Comment No.69. Appropriate or what?
Is there an obscure law left over from ancient times which allows the wife of The Speaker to make any silly comments they like about anyone?
After learning about the ‘marital coercion’ law I wouldn’t be surprised.
Whilst the speaker’s wife is technically his sole liberty, (however lol!) (& lots of love for when I see you again) xxx, her comments are not free, she has to compensate for too much liberty when she airs to all in public remarks objectively capable of injuring another’s reputation. That’s the law of the land.
Y but surely the damages would be negligible now that McAlpine has done such honorable things with the story, directed donations to Children in Need and cleared his name, he could even profit from it.
That is not the point. Fresh meat.
if what somebody says is true but unknown that would also be injurious so I suppose what is said must be untrue. I didn’t see what she said, anybody know ?
And when they arrest Leon you can all apologise for being so wilfully blind.
I like the cut of your jib
“any tweeters with less than 500 followers”
Fewer than, surely.
<500
or even mathmatician
Or even mathematician.
No mention on the impartial BBC News of McAlpine’s action against Sally Bercow.
Can we ask what a jury does?
I found some evidence on the internet, can we use it?
“Charity of her choice”. Umm, that is thoughtful. tax allowable. Every cloud has a silver lining.
Better take a big big look at who at the Charity Commission – is not a Common Purpose Muppet Graduate.
Perhaps the lasses experiences in the Big Brother House will not be wasted. Not that much difference with being in that and Wormwood Scrubbers?
I’m innocent and thick.
And open to all cumers??
That’s ‘er fooked…oh, ah…mmm!
Do you think John Bercow realises that McAlpine is going to fuck his wife this year?
along with many others
McAlpine only dropped the small fry in favour of Sally Bercow because he’s that sort of person: he wants the big-paying high-profile stuff.
The guy is an old-school big-time gambler, but I have a feeling he will come a cropper if he goes after Sally B. His sort always do. This is really just a last gasp of publicity to get everyone else involved to pay up out of court, before he is forced to drop the remaining actions.
McAlpine must already realize there is a strong possibility he will lose, and at would then face being sued by the BBC and ITV for their money back plus costs.
McAlpine will not take that risk.
Lord McAlpine wrote a book in about 2000 in which he described ways of fending off unwanted press attention. One way he describes is to go in hard first, accuse the whistleblowers of telling lies, threaten them with lawyers, etc., etc. I can provide the exact quote on request.
It’s interesting that his lordship is sticking to his philosophy with all guns blazing. I mean, it’s not as if the accusations are true – is it…?
There is little doubt that as long as McAlpine does not have the judiciary in his pocket, he will lose. The claim will be struck out as an abuse of process. The circumstances, the demand and amount, the number of tweets/posts involved, BBC involvement and singling Sally Barcow out and the amount of compensation received already, all point to another nice libel defeat in the High Court. The ‘game ain’t worth the candle’. In other words, the costs involved are not proportionate to the vindication which will be achieved by such an exercise.
In my opinion his solicitors do not stand a chance in hell.
