    Are libel laws weaker in the UK than the USA? Calling someone a nazi is libelous here unless they are an admitted Nazi. That’s why all the articles call it “odd”.

      They’re much stronger but I doubt it would amount to libel. In the Uk you need to prove your statements, but they easily could because he did.

      How about a video of someone doing a nazi salute TWICE at an inauguration rally attended by neo nazis for a president who has asked to be made PRESIDENT LIFE SEVEN time AT LEAST.
