   The journalist that is behind the latest FOI is Ian Birrell (so no surprises there). He is unhappy with the claim ofnon-disclosure because of the risk of harm and is threatening to write about Edinburgh's refusal. Our lawyer just wants to get more information in order to defend against this. @Robert Garry Is it OK that I tell him you had your home attacked with a rock and a message? @Kristian Andersen Can I say that Scripps provided you with armed personal protection? Was that due to a specific threat? @Eddie Holmes You have had personal threats of violence I think? I will also say that your university is taking this non-release approach for the same reason.

   Assuming names don't go directly to Birrell (that fucker will mention all of this), yes, Scripps had to place armedguards outside our home due to multiple threats. They had to do the same outside my lab - including also installinglocked doors and security cameras.
