@dangillmor He won't voluntarily pay. But perhaps there are assets in the UK that could be seized (at least if he doesn't manage to become president again).

@dangillmor What's really wild is that the UK has terrible, terrible libel laws, making just way too easy to sue anybody over anything they say, and Trump wasn't suing them for libel. Instead, he was suing them for publicly releasing something confidential. He wasn't arguing that the Russians don't have kompromat on him, merely that nobody should have known about it.

@dangillmor
Why start now?

@dangillmor There exists machinery via treaties and International law that does allow one to enforce a judgement in country A in country B. But it's not easy and not certain. (And it can involve using Foreign Office and State Dept mechanisms that are not familiar to most people.)
