Our Mampara: obsessive, haughty, arrogant, self-important, excessive, outlandish, vindictive, relentless, venomous, evasive, argumentative, opportunistic, unconvincing, unbalanced, paranoid, untruthful ... that, at least, is according to the judge’s dismissal of this puffed-up shinehead’s defamation case against this newspaper.

However, with the help of an anagram generator, Acting Judge Leslie Weinkove could have gone so much further.

To whit:

Terror’s unshared slob. Blunder or rash tosser. Born hard, trouserless. Ruthless or barren sod. Horror’s beardless nut. Rash slob to surrender ...

But the one we find the most fitting:

Sad losers run, brother.

With acknowledgement to Sunday Times.



Having won its case in every respect possible and having the judge repeat and enhance the Plaintiff's descriptions of the Defendant, the Sunday Times now makes a bit of a mampara of itself with its unnecessary anagrams.
