Not a good idea as I don't know ET's liability regarding UK libel laws. This is being covered by Guido Fawkes blog, who is basically going "so sue me" to the lawyers and is also being covered via dKos, who being American, have the Ist amendment to protect them.

Re: Europe (none / 0)

Never thought about that oO

It may depend where the servers for this blog are physically cited?

I posted the article "from" the Netherlands so I (hope) Dutch laws gives me some protection.

Re: Europe (none / 0)

It may increasingly depend on just where stuff is published, meaning, on Internet, almost everywhere. UK libel law being very favourable to the plaintiff, we are likely to see more and more suits under UK law.

IANAL, but I can't see any libel in what you posted.
