Not quite right.  He certainly pointed out all the attacks made on him but was particularly incensed that the Times had published a photo of his daughter’s house and she is now being harassed by the press.  I will find the video link to his compete statement and people can hear and make up their own mind and ignore your biased nonsense.

You missed off the first 20 mins where he whinged on endlessly about "the press don't like me" and "won't stop looking into my finances, it's annoying"
