For this to be a legitimate effort, we should take the average for similar plagiarism instances in all UK PhD theses, and compare this to Saif Al-Gaddafi's work.

Failing such a comparison, this simply amounts to a witch-hunt.

Just as it is possible to argue that LSE could be prone to corporate or financial subversion here, its turn-around decision to cut ties with the Gaddafi Foundation can be seen as an expression of a no better kind of political expediency and convenience, on the back of prevailing winds, displaying an even more worrying lack of principle and fickleness.
