Usmanov Schillings Close down Craig Murray: Marking the 6 month anniversary
If you are following your own technorati “Authority” score you may have noticed a decline in the last few days.
It’s that time - 6 months since the Usmanov imbroglio, and all the links are dropping out of the Technorati scores. I’m down by 50 in 4 days.
The Technorati rankings don’t matter a damn, but perhaps it is a reminder - 6 months later - that it is time to pick up the Freedom of Expression cudgels once again.
The dodgy libel laws are still on the books, and Shillings Lawyers are still to be seen strutting about bullying people into self-censorship on the basis of untested and unproven allegations that material that happens to be disliked by rich clients is defamatory.
I haven’t forgotten; neither should any of us.
And I’m looking for more nominees for the Usmanov Schillings Duck-n-Cluck awards.

Still on google, most of the top 20 search results for schillings concern their ill-fated Usmanov campaign. Schillings and other UK libel lawyers won’t have forgotten the bad publicity…
Thanks for commenting.
That alone justifies all the activity in my opinion.
