Some folks think that I was wrong to call Louise Cooper an investment prostitute. I make no apologies. The silly cow painted herself as whiter than white, a Mother Theresa. The FACT is that she was more Princess Diana. She works for a company that takes cash from companies to interview them, then gives soft interviews without declaring the payments. That is investment prostitution and is WRONG. However...

Hmm… no Tom, the problem is that you called Ms Cooper a prostitute in your audio broadcast (I note you do not use that word in isolation in your piece above). Assuming you are unable to prove that Ms Cooper is a prostitute then you have slandered her, or otherwise libeled her given that it was in recorded speech (not my area of expertise). Either way she has grounds to sue you.
Who knows, Ms Cooper may decide not to pursue this if you publish a clear and unequivocal retraction and apology on this website. But maybe she won’t.
Sincerely yours,

If you class her a financial Prostitutes then parliament is a brothel. :)

I would deffinately go for both professional and personal libel on this one. Tom clearly calls Ms Cooper a prostitute in his audio broadcast, there can be no doubt or question regarding this and Ms Cooper is obviously open to legal recourse
On a different note I am waiting for a reply from the Aim Regulatory Authority regarding Toms earlier ‘boast’ that he as a cosy and apparently regular relationship with the aforementioned authority. My concern here is that there is undeniable market abuse taking place with Qpp
Should be a busy week for Tom’s so called ‘legal team’ then

I send & receive emails from the FCA/AIM Reg and chatted to AIM reg twice last week. There is nothing illegal in that so you are talking cock as per usual.
Re Ms Cooper perhaps she can launch a joint action with Rob Terry and throw in a soft interview on t1ps TV for Quenron with Zak Mir looking at a chart upside down and saying buy as part of the bargain? Like I am really quaking about that too,
You really are a total tosser
