Finding someone not guilty of what you accused them of != proving you to be a liar.

You probably need to read up on the case before assuming that I was implying that Salmond being found not guilty is the same as proving the women lied. One of the women claimed she was at a party with Salmond, which he denied, and nobody could verify that she was there. Nobody saw her, nobody spoke to her, it was a party and everyone in attendance was interviewed, as you'd expect for such serious accusations. She was lying. Actually lying. Yet we still don't know who she is, and if you find out and print her name, it's you going to prison.

If they're found to be lying in court, they should face perjury charges.

Yes. Yes they should.

The law ensuring anonymity is there to protect innocent victims of abuse from having their name dragged through the mud in public. If a woman makes a vexatious complaint, she foregoes that protection and will be named. There's nothing wrong with that system.

Further, it's not up to Craig to decide the women are all lying and give enough info to allow them to be id'd, as the court ruled he had done. So fuck him, he basically acts like he's above the law this guy.

Starts to make sense why he's popping a bottle of champagne at the police station now. It's a pattern of very arrogant behaviour.
