Superb science journalist Simon Singh, who's at risk of being personally and professionally ruined by a libel case, is campaigning to have the UK's ridiculous libel laws changed, so that it can no longer be used to stifle responsible journalists, scientists and researchers.

Emma - I see Simon Singh has won his case in the Court of Appeal. Good news! I hope common sense will continue to prevail.
