The Times clearly has more balls than The Independent. It is keeping up on its website an article headlined It's the Siege of Sark as islanders keep the Barclay brothers at bay despite having received a letter of complaint from lawyers acting for the Barclay boyos.
Though the piece, by Simon de Bruxelles, is marked "This article is subject to a legal complaint", I understand that the paper's lawyers do not believe the complaint serious enough to warrant its removal.
If only The Independent was as supportive of its columnist Stephen Glover, whose excellent December 22 article, What's happening to The Daily Telegraph is a national tragedy, has been inexplicably removed from the paper's website.
