It seems like everyone in politics is threatening libel action or debating what can and can't be published at the moment. This is one of the benefits of having such a low profile and a lack of readership. You can pretty much say whatever you want and no one really cares :)
Personally I think it's always best to avoid the courts as much as possible. The law should never become a political weapon. Of course, it always is to some extent whatever the circumstances. When things get politicised though it always favours those with money, and then even further above that those with their hands on the actual levers of powers. So the little fish always lose out, and the big fish themselves eventually get eaten by those even bigger.
It's a very messy distraction too.
