Interpal: no case to answer

Osama Saeed asks that I draw attention to his post regarding the ongoing Interpal controversy. It appears that the charitable organisation is looking into taking legal action against Stephen Pollard (right-wing blogger and biographer of David Plonkett), the Jerusalem Post and Daily Telegraph. Particularly significant is that "a source close to the Prime Minister" has dismissed the rumours thus:

"The adverse comments relating to Interpal in the press are without doubt the work of the 'usual troublemakers' and such rumours have no substance in reality. The government has no issue with Interpal, nor are there any attempts to interfere in the work of the Charity Commission."
