Interesting.

Does that mean that if old Robby Noakes down in OZ were to see a photo of my shotgun and 1. posts compliments to me on the gun, then adds
2. a derogatory remark about how poorly I shoot it, and concludes in a sentence 3. I am not entitied to own such a fine gun (say a Marks & Spencer item, that cost me 15 pounds sterling) and the blog proprietor deletes part 3, as being an opinion rather than a fact, that he, the proprietor, is open to action from Noakes for censorship? Or from me?

If this feeble attempt is a poorly composed example, perhaps you can give me a better one.

In passing, I don't intend to run a blog anywhere!

If UK law were to prevail in the US, we'd have very few blogs if I understand you correctly.
