Yesterday Emily Thornberry, the Labour MP for Islington, tweeted this:

To which Guido replied

Remember when Emily exercised her "Right to Buy to Let" for Housing Association property! P.S. Where is my writ? https://t.co/KkVGuRjlqN

Which seems to have inspired the Daily Mail’s front page. Back in March, Guido had a right old ding-dong with his former next door neighbour Emily Thornberry. Lady Nugee’s tweet about a lack of social housing stock, despite buying a former housing association house in Islington and renting it out, is breathtaking hypocrisy. An open goal…

And buy-to-let landlords privatising social housing, like, errr, you? http://t.co/E4cQeJQa5X @EmilyThornberry

Eventually she threatened to sue him for talking about it:

@GuidoFawkes you'll remember that was a lie & national newspapers paid damages. Repeat so long as you give me an address for service of writ

Emily really should stay away from Twitter for her own good.

No writ has turned up… so she can add the Daily Mail to her list of future court adversaries…
