Of Fascists and Restaurant Critics "Sono un fascista, non un razzista"

Just before we all set off on our Christmas hols, two interesting cases concerning the limits of freedom of expression. Above, Lazio player Paolo Di Canio shows us, yet again, what a charming fellow he really is. And in this case, a Maltese court upholds the right of a restaurant critic to, well, presumably say that the food at the ominously named Casa Nostra joint was pretty lousy, the service atrocious, the management a bit on the rough side and the wine over-priced. It happens you know. Although I'd love to read the review itself which was called No Messing With This Family. Maybe it went beyond the disappointing Bistecca alla Fiorentina. All these gangster overtones sound pretty cool.  ¶ 7:06 AM
