In a twist that highlights the absurdity of UK libel laws, former Prime Minister Liz Truss is threatening to sue current PM Keir Starmer for saying she “crashed the economy” during her chaotic 49 days in office… conveniently forgetting that she made the exact same accusation against an earlier PM herself.
Yeah, I’m sure it’s going to be very effective sending a legally unenforceable cease and desist intimidation letter to an ex senior barrister, Queen’s Counsel member (basically a group of hand picked senior lawyers who are deemed exceptional in their craft), and not to mention fucking Chief of Public Prosecutions for the Crown Prosecution Service lmao.
Can you even imagine how good Kier Starmer’s lawyer must be?
