Sex and the Socialist

I've been following the Sheridan libel case from the start with a growing sense of disbelief. Given the lurid stream of accusations, from a diverse and apparently credible number of witnesses, you have to say that Sheridan's decision to sue the News of the World looks like a Jonathan Aitkin moment. The last throw of the dice by a man obsessed with being in the public eye - puts Faslane and the Poll Tax protests in context. eh?
The poor sap is now defending himself – never a good sign. What is this emotion that I am feeling? Can it be pity? For Sheridan? Surely not!

Best headline so far on the Sheridan shenanigans has been "Sheridan Drops His Briefs"
I understand that he appeared as a witness today and somehow managed to crossexamine himself.
I'd quite liked to have seen that.
Cross-examine himself, that's a new one.
I know he's been told to go fuck himself a few times and maybe if he'd stuck to that he wouldn't be in this shit.
As for pity, never!
