Yet another Dave Walker

A legal threat has been made against cartoonist Dave Walker by Mark Brewer to force him to take down his reporting and comment about the SPCK bookshop chain’s takeover and management by the Society of Saint Stephen the Great (SSG). As Matt Wardman has pointed out this is about the right to discuss the issue in public and not have anyone try and close down debate by having (or claiming to have) access to a legal sanction that prevents freedom of speech.

Jonathan, Matt has now updated the list to include our posts.

Thanks for the heads up on Spyboy, really enjoying it and the band are excellent. I hadn't heard Emmylou's version of The Maker though I had Lanois' original from when he released Acadia back in the 80's!
