The Sun win a case at last. Ryan Giggs claim against The Sun for misuse of private information and argued that he is entitled to claim damages for distress and breach of a right to privacy enshrined in human rights legislation. Mr Justice Tugendhat, gave his ruling today saying Giggs was a cheating shite and denied his right to compensation.

I might be wrong but I believe the judge did not award damages because Imogen whatsername has committed to not revealing anything so The Sun don't get their scoop.

Mind you The Sun could choose another story to splash with, such as how News of the World staff seemed to have sabotaged a murder trial of one of their private investigators.

So regardless of what Giggs did (which wasn't illegal by the way) why don't we just dispense with the law altogether cos it pleases the general public. Why don't we go further and just close all the courts and sack all the police while we're at it because if the law doesn't hold up in it's own courtroom it isn't worth the paper it's supposed to be enshrined on.

That's kinda the point I was making. By not upholding Giggs' injunction the court have, in effect, made all injunctions worthless if the press decide that the public interest takes higher precedence over a celebs right to privacy. I don't condone Giggs for what he did and if I was his brother he wouldn't be playing football anymore, but that's beside the point, Giggs took out a legal injunction banning any newspaper for naming him and The Sun broke that injunction. That's the facts m'lud.

Just to echo wishy. Leave Rhodri and Imogen to rebuild their lives. RG committed a no no and its public knowledge. He's lost alot of respect from this.

The MP was protected by parliamentary priviledge but The Sun wasn't. It should have adhered to the law and not printed what the MP said. That's irrelevant now though as The Sun DID print it, so the court should have upheld Giggs' injunction and awarded him damages against The Sun for breaking it.

It makes the injunction weapon of law totally pointless if someone can break an injunction with impunity.

I wonder if the judge did have a tug on his when reviewing the evidence?

What!!!! Six months for contempt? Not fair.
