defamation? I'd quite like to see him sued
You might like to see it, but what's the cause of action? In the case of named individual persons, mere vulgar abuse is not defamation. Corporate bodies would need to show actual or probable financial loss, and in either case the test is whether the statement causes the regard in which the subject is held by right thinking or reasonable persons to be lowered. I would argue that hambini is himself so disreputable that no right thinking or reasonable person would have their views about somebody else altered by his statements.
Even if you could persuade a court that he had defamed you, why would you bother? He's a grunt level engineer, he'd be bankrupt before you'd even got half your costs back.

He tried to play the racism card when wondering why cycling weekly might have blocked him from commenting.
Is a lot of what he says not defamation? I'd quite like to see him sued tbh
