Liz Truss has sent a legal letter to Keir Starmer demanding he stops making “false and defamatory” claims that she crashed the economy.
The former prime minister sent a six-page “cease and desist” letter accusing Starmer of harming her reputation and contributing to her losing her South West Norfolk seat in the general election.
C&D sounds like a good way to scare someone who was wasn’t previously a Barrister, Bencher, Director of Public Prosecutions, and didn’t have a knighthood for services to law and criminal justice.
Imagine how good Keir Starmer’s lawyer must be lol.
Yeah, yeah, he knows some legal mumbo jumbo but the Truster is powered by an idiotic self-belief.
Defamation laws in the UK are a bit silly though.
How so?
They are treated, effectively, as guilty until proven innocent.
