Default Star Rachel Riley loses latest round of libel battle

[Countdown star Rachel Riley has lost the latest
round of a libel battle with a political blogger
and Jeremy Corbyn supporter.
The 35-year-old television presenter was
accused of engaging in a
"campaign of online abuse and harassment"
on Twitter.

She sued Mike Sivier after he published an
article on his website Vox Political in
January 2019 with the
headline: "Serial abuser Rachel Riley to
receive 'extra protection' - on grounds that
she is receiving abuse".
]


https://news.sky.com/story/countdown...attle-12306399


On Twitter many are picking on her,
sadly.

I've actually stopped watching Countdown because of her acidic campaign.
She even picked on Jedward.

No time for Riley I'm afraid.

I'm glad she's lost this round of this

Jedward use twitter to post silly hard left propaganda, swear continually and in general are 2 of the silliest twats in Ireland

Rachel is bang on right to call those 2 immature dicks out

They had their Mother suffering from and who was lost to cancer.
Then why should I think that would matter in your book.

She was vile in her campaign re Corbyn and those who challenged her on it.
Which seems to be being borne out by her defeat so far today.

If I'm totally honest I'm not up to date with what Rachel says or does, literally all I know is she's on countdown and started dating her strictly partner .

I also never thought she'd be the type of person to cause a stir,but I don't know much about her.

i don't know much about her other than she was on countdown, but i do remember her getting political over something on twitter and i can easily imagine that escalating into something toxic as it so often does

It strikes me from the opening post.
She's the instigator.
Well done on this judgement I say.

I don't know anything about her twittering, but she's always seemed fine to me on the tv shows i've seen her on. Why do people think she's a dickhead? (genuine question)

Well she's losing a libel case, so she's been accusing others of things falsely..
However because she campaigned with few facts re Corbyn.
I can see why there's excusing her doing anything now seen in law as wrong.
Unbelievable the lengths Cons and closet Cons, go to excusing any bad behaviour against individuals because her target was Corbyn in this instance.

All the abuse she's getting is right, then.

No you haven't got it al all, and don't twist my words either.

I'm not impressed with her across the board.

She's the one whose lost a libel case.
She's the one deemed wrong on this in law.

I've said what I think of her and that's that.

That's all you could get from what I said.
Anything else you think you got, is your own invention.
