my sentements exactly.
If the journalist of Colin saw them, you would just say "But how do we know they really saw them?" "We can't trust that the journalist saw them, he works for The Sun"
It doesn't matter if they existed or not, it was the INTENTION to sell them and to describe them in such a manner that is vile and disgusting. Or are you saying that Colin is a liar? Even leaving the journalist out of the equation - someone is a liar and it had to be either Colin or Jeremy - so which?
