After nearly five years, it’s time to end my court crowdfunder
Many of you may remember This Writer was involved in a large court case, involving a nationally-known TV ‘celebrity’, for which I raised funds via the CrowdJustice website.
After nearly five years, and with donations of more than a quarter of a million pounds, it is time to end this campaign.
My legal team has contacted me to say they are happy to close my account now, meaning there is nothing more for me to pay them and no reason to continue asking for donations.
So it is time for me to thank everybody who supported me during my long and arduous legal battle – more than 11,000 of you.
Although I didn’t win the case, the fact that it took place made many thousands more people aware of the issues I had raised and allowed them to form their own opinions about my opponent.
So it seems that, in this case, it wasn’t necessary to win. The important thing was that I stood up for what I believed was right – and, in so doing, gave others the chance to decide what they believed as well.
This has been a long and exceptionally difficult campaign, and it would not have achieved anything at all without you. Everything I did achieve, I achieved with your help.
Thank you.

And THANK YOU. Solidarity.
I’d say it was a moral victory if not an official one, so congratulations.
You were the ultimate winner by showing dignity and honesty throughout
I feel she shot herself in the foot with the action. The ‘Streisand Effect’ was visited on her. So many people had no idea about the interaction until she decided to take action. Luckily people were able to read it for themselves and make their own minds up.
I’m mindful of having visited David Cameron’s Facebook page many years ago and, despite being no fan of his, being quite shocked at the abusive content levelled at him. It does rather make me think that others are remarkably thin skinned whilst politicians, particularly women, are genuinely suffering..
