If I were the NOTW I would be dusting me checkbook down ready for an outing, it's not so much the action of Max M, more that Judge Eady doesn,t really seem to like the media, He presided in recent cases such as Lord Browne, a Saudi billionaire, George Galloway, Paul Mckenna and found for all of them in newspaper allegations.

Ha,the screws star witness failed to turn up! Mosely is an arrogant twat but it'd be nice to see him get one over H.M. Gutter Press!

The N.O.W is merely an arm of Big Brother and trying to set a precedent that will allow cameras into private premises. Big Brother is never satisfied he can watch you as soon as you step outside your front door and now he wants the right to come inside!

Mosley wins! And is awarded ?60,000 damages.

No, it cost TNOTW ?850,000 all together if you include the legal costs on top of the ?600,000.

The judge only awarded compensation, he did not agree to punitive fines.

In a way, the judgement didn't resolve the privacy issues, because on the one hand the judge agreed that people have a right to keep their sex life private, on the other this kind of fine won't deter any major newspaper.

Perhaps in a repeat case in the future a judge might say: we were here before, we are here again, so I'll increase the fine as a deterrant.

edit: ?60,000

Oops! What's a few noughts between friends? !laugh!

I'm glad he's had justice served. I really can't understand how anyone can spy on a person having sex in a private place. If he'd been doing this stuff in Tesco's carpark then fair enough, but if what the NOTW did isn't an invasion of privacy, what is?
