Simon Singh wins libel appeal

[durham_rambler]

The BBC has just reported that science writer Simon Singh has won his libel appeal against the British Chiropractors' Association. The appeal court has ruled that he can rely on a defence of fair comment, which is very good news indeed. There are other cases ongoing and I hope that these will be brought to a swift conclusion and allow open debate to resume.
