The Catholic Orangemen of Togo and Other Conflicts I Have Known

Libel lawyers Schillings have been chasing Craig Murray. Again. This time its over things Craig had to say about the mercenary Tim Spicer in his new book, The Catholic Orangemen of Togo and Other Conflicts I Have Known.

Schillings succeeded in getting Craig’s publishers to pull out of producing the book. Craig says:

Let me be clear: there is no libel in this book – it is all true and based on my own eye-witness account. It contains not libel, but rather truth some people wish to hide.

To get around this attempt at censorship he has self-published the book (which you can buy here) and also made it available as a free download. Get it, read it, and make up your own mind. Don’t let Schillings make that decision for you.

    Craig Murray is clearly going to get himself into a lot of trouble if he keeps going after these people!

    Shame that rich lawyers can stifle his views so easily.

      But is he? he doesn’t seem to be afraid going to court over what he’s said or written, whereas Schillings clients have challenged him how many times in court?

      It doesn’t seem to be Craig that’s worried about going to court does it?

    I’m not sure British libel law recognises that distinction.

    Great – like I don’t have enough unread books lying around the living room as it is. Oh well, I guess it’s all for a good cause…

    Shouldn’t Schillings be on the LabourList of lawyers not to be touched with a barge pole?
