UKFSN hosts Schoolforge-UK.  Chris is publicity officer for 
Schoolforge-UK.  Although I'm sure that this wouldn't bias either 
Chris or Jason, Chris should be familiar with UKFSN and the history of 
this topic, so it seems strange that Chris would threaten UKFSN with 
trading standards action.  Is this email really from Chris?

Not all AFFS activities are political, although some of our aims are.  
I think it would be easy to argue that AFFS qualifies as a free 
software project (or maybe several), although I will not do so for 
this purpose.
