Martyn Jones MP Sues the Mail on Sunday

Iain Dale has an interesting post about Clwyd south Labour MP Martyn Jones. Apparently Mr Jones is suing The Mail on Sunday because it claimed that he had told a House of Commons security guard to F*** Off twice, when he was asked to show his security pass.

Apart from not seeing what is so shocking in the story, even if it is completely untrue, to justify a libel case Mr Jones also shows one of the dangers of taking libel actions: If it wasn't for the reports about the libel case, I would never have become aware of the original accusation.
