Emeritus Prof Christopher May

So the solicitor who tried to silence Dan Neidle's revelations about Nadhim Zahawi's tax affairs, when Neidle accused Zahawi of lying about them (which subsequently was proved to be correct, he was lying about them) has been fined by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (finally).

However given the solicitor in question & his firm are from contrite & believe his threats did not break any laws or breach professional standards, I'm sure we'll see it all done again!
