It is late, you’ve had a few drinks, you tweet something you wouldn’t if you were sober. Been there, got the T-shirt. The Times columnist and TV food critic is in contempt of court. This is possibly Coren’s funniest work for ages…
N.B. A co-conspirator T-shirt is on the way to James Waterson for the tip.

Tom Harris bemoans the public’s attitude to politicians…
“Mr Oborne echoes the lazy, anti-politics whine we hear so often these days, all based on the absurd notion that politicians were once loved and only fell out of public favour during the expenses scandal. He should take a walk to the Strangers’ Bar. But not to sup with the patrons he seems to despise so much, dearie me, no; he should instead look at the paintings on the corridor outside the bar, which depict the devastating fire which consumed most of the Palace in 1834. And he should reflect on the fact that on that dramatic night, as the Commons went up in flames, a crowd gathered on the South Bank to clap and cheer.”
The thing that Dave needs to work out is which group is more likely to vote Conservative. Mad swivel-eyed loons or mad homosexuals wishing to get married.
Does he face jail?
Would a jury convict?
Not all trials have juries.
Giles Coren and his sister are so full of themselves – a pair of egotistical twats busy undoing all of the laughs their father created. But this is quite funny!
His sister’s highly fuckable.

I hadn’t previously thought anything about him, but the piece Guido linked to with his letter / email to the subs has convinced me that he’s a Grade A arse.
Lets leave Victoria out of this shall we?
A. She is not responsible for her brother.
B. She’s made her own way in the World . . . successfully by most measures.
C. This smacks of some contributors here fearing she may discover they have very, very small willies.

Not publicly, on that you can be sure
He’ll certainly be reviewing the food quite regularly.
Yes, whichever way he’s facing, he’s generally facing a jail somewhere.
Who is Gareth Barry?
I hear m’learned friends are examining various five a side teams.
Does he like playing away from home?
I have to say that was my reaction.
Stupid innit? No one in the world had ever heard of him until his lawyers got him involved in this injunction malarky.
He’s that bloke that keeps getting picked to play midfield for England and then inevitably disppoints by giving the ball away – he’s so kind to foreigners I think they must have diversity training at City.
Well I hope Barry’s bedroom performances are better than his international football ones; Paragnostic has summed him up pretty well . In addition Barry appears to be so DIM. But why all the abuse directed at Giles Coren ? He’s performed a valuable Cobbetesque service, even if half cut. Admittedly his sister is one of the most iritating women in the public eye, but henceforth I shall be reading her brother’s articles with more sympathy. But I fear for the worse if Dominic Grieve is going to be involved with this– dont trust that peculiar looking establishment figure at all.
his sister has a very nice set of top bollocks.

Surely paying the gold digger off is cheaper than paying the solicitors thousands, given that it will end up on Twitter eventually anyway?
Even cheaper not to get involved with gold-diggers in the first place. He could have had a J. Arthur instead.
Rank stupidity if you ask me.
‘You won’t get any higher than me’.
Compare and contrast:
The British legal system prepares to prosecute and possibly jail a journalist for telling the truth about a famous footballer because of the Human Rights Act.
The British legal system conspires to prevent a foreign convicted terrorist from being thrown out of the UK because it would breach his Human Rights.
The Coalition needs to sort this out as a matter of urgency.
Indeed. This should be shouted from the rooftops, tweeted to the world.

There should have been a warning, Guido. They were so fucking dull I think I need a glass of Scotch.
Sunday Herald front pages for everyone !
google has blocked access…place is like bloody China.
Someone has posted a picture of the Herald front page on Twitter. I presume the Herald have limited sales to Scottish editions and not put online.
The English press are pathetic. If they had even half of one ball they would ALL defy the courts.
What your ‘supine’ press might want to consider is that Article 8 merely states that the right to privacy should be respected – it does NOT legally guarantee it (as Article 2 guarantees the right to life)
These injunctions may have legs of iron but they have feet of clay. Break away the clay and the iron will surely fall.

It depends from which orifice one intends to ‘flush’.
Mr Oaten would have a very different opinion on this issue to most of us who contribute here.
But then again, as he is not in the ‘vagina business’, the wonderfully-endowed Ms Coren would not be of interest to him anyway.
Are we talking Cleveland Steamers here?
The most astonishing ‘revelation’ here is that Giles Coren must therefore, by implication, have a ‘Television Programme’ ? He kept that one quiet !
And then he tries to throw us off the scent by being described as a ‘journalist’ in the mode of someone not a million miles from this parish…
Of course, saying he is in contempt of court is in itself a contempt of court. We have gone back to the fucking medieval star chambers.
Giles Coren is a turd and a slimebag but it’s sickening that anyone can be sent to prison just for indulging in a bit of gossip, about some philandering footballer, on the internet.
Why is NuLabour’s oppressive, Stalinistic legislation still in place and being used by scumbag solicitors after 12 months on Tory/Lib Dem government?
Because the present government is little different from the Blair/Brown Terror?
What sort of a Stalinist shit-hole of a country is it when someone can be thrown into prison for gossiping on the internet?
Quite, and even worse – for telling the fucking truth!
In court aren’t you supposed to swear (on the bible) to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you god.
‘Yes your honour Ryan Gigggs had an affair with Imogen Thomas and then took out a super-injunction to stop anyone finding out and that’s the god honest truth’.
The fuckers will probably resort to reporting restrictions and a closed court.
From a government not being allowed to kick out a known terrorist to judges making things up as they go along. This situation is utterly bonkers and the ‘system’ is thoroughly broken. Fuck them.
Time to reclaim England!
Yes- but let’s leave the Welsh to fend for themselves.

Quite! But New Lab still have a hell of a lot to answer for:

No, it means you could be the first person to go to prison just for three points. Loser!
As one of the older readers I seem to remember that Thatcher tried to stop ‘Spycatcher’ reaching UK news stands. She also insisted that anyone Irish with even the mildest of republican sympathies could not be heard on TV or radio and that their words needed to be read out by an actor. I believe a song by The Pogues (streets of sorrow/birmingham six) was banned as well. Censorship and control freak tendencies were not invented in 1997, just continued.
Still, by the end of the week everyone will know who Gareth Barry and Giles Coren are.
Yes I remember. Irish terrorists were never off the BBC of course, due to their “balance” like NuLiebour now and at least the funny voices gave the IRA comedy value. Of course it would have been better (and cheaper) to have sorted out the BBC then.
Ban a song, and it goes to number 1. Publicity that shillings x20 can’t buy.
Somehow David Bowie’s Space Oddity would have jeopardized moon landings, 10cc’s Rubber Bullets the security of NI, and Serge Gainsbourg would have caused endless rutting and rapture in the street. Some people have the daftest ideas.
I remember that too, I think she was wrong with the Spycatcher thing, but she was essentially right about trying to stop the IRA from getting shit loads of free air-time to broadcast their propaganda with tax payers’ money.
As per David Dimblebore’s reply, I also think that she should have sorted out the BBC, because what they did was to use technicalities to go against the spirit/meaning of the law; maybe she should have made the law tighter, because that weird loophole should have been obvious at the outset.
I mean, fair enough to be able to report on the generalities of what the terrorists say they’re killing people for, but it’s not right to broadcast their propaganda for them verbatim using tax payers’ money, which is what the BBC did. At that time, the BBC basically acted as the IRA’s media arm, getting everything broadcasted that they asked for, all paid for with our money.
Especially if the gossip turns out to be true. (Allegedly.)
As far as i can make out if you say something that is wrong about a person then you ain’t breaking the injunction but if you tell the truth then you go to jail.
That does indeed seem to be the situation. Yet still we have supposedly intelligent lawyers and judges defending the current situation. Most odd.
Knock! knock!
Who’s there?
Mr Schilling looking for Mr Al, you see we know where you live.
No one is entitled to privacy when engaged in wrongdoing! Any Law or court that says otherwise is Pernicious.
It won’t be trial by jury it will be ……. judges, who are the new rulers of this land. Unelected mongs who wear dead horses on their heads.
And from the news reports, I’d assumed it was a real journalist, and had guessed Andrew Neill, Still think the legal eagles pursuing Giles Coren will only guarantee that the subjects of the injunction will now receive maximum publicity, just like R*** G****.
Won’t they ever learn, that with the Internet, the rules have changed.
Tweeted at 3pm – are you suggesting he was out late and still drinking then?
Wow. Does ‘England footballer’ (Wales, shurely?) realise what a monumental Hunt he will look like if Giles Coren does end up getting sent down?
That’s Giggsy’s knighthood down the swannee.
From hero to public enemy number one without even kicking a ball.
Gareth Barry
Its not that player everyone is talking about, its a different one.
As for this, if it was the Times that had the injunction served against it then Coren is even more of an idiot than he appears for breaching it using his own Twitter. FFS make Schillings actually work for its money.
Try Gareth Barry.
I have decided not to remember anything about anything.
He may not “remember” but he “thinks” he might have been driving.
Sounds as if he was pissed… wonder how many glasses he was served on the flight before he (possibly) drove?
If it was Ryanair, bugger all!
Frustrating to know dinners involving the likes of Giles [the Gareth Barry of media types], Michael Winner, Jamie Theakston and Richard Bacon haven’t been disrupted by a nailbomb. Come on all you Twitter Nailbombers, Facebook burglers are making look like anachronistic criminals.
We could have “Heston’s B&P Feast”, with a starter of Fascist Pigs Knuckle, main of Soused Griffin and a dessert of Admiral Duncan’s NailBombe surprise!
I think Andrew Marr should be added to the guest list, though…
The BBC is reporting that the Sunday Herald is ignoring the injunction (it’s a Scottish paper – they aren’t bound by English law) but oddly the Grauniad says they can’t mention the name of the Scottish paper, for legal reasons.
But Giles Coren deserves to be prosecuted for the wholly unfunny, overlong crap he writes – he’s terminally boring.
None of the search engines will get the Herald – has Scotland been cut off ? Have they all been raptured and we re in hell ?
The picture is only in the printed version and is not sold south of the border. All people leaving scotch trains in England are being body searched to make sure the aren’t smuggling anti Injunction material into the country.
How can it be hell if Scotland’s gone ?
Scotland will have a huge cage placed over it.
England has been a set aside by Jesus as the official “Fly-Tipping Zone” of the new paradigm. The land will soon be covered with discarded White Goods, consumerist landfill sites and assorted miscreants like child killers, ragheads, Tories and other non-Celtic immigrants with a persecution complex. Residents are assured that they will not notice any huge changes.

There seem to be school playground parallels, here. The local bully in the form of an embarrassed law firm would appear to be picking on someone small and only peripherally involved.
The one redeeming feature of this fiasco is that no-one in their right mind will consult Schillings in these circumstances again.All their bluster about prison is an attempt to disguise the fact that they’ve totally lost control of the the story(and therefore the case)by ludicrously overreaching themselves.They’ve done their client no service at all-quite the reverse.
All precedent in the world does not overcome the essential truth-if you’re in a hole,stop digging.
But who is the poor woman involved ?? My knowledge of z-list celebrities is minimal, so a full biog would be jolly helpful…
You could at least have had the decency to give him a ‘Zorro-style’ face mask courtesy of PhotoShop..
A “Man in the Iron Mask” mask would have been better. Or even a Morrison’s carrier-bag.
Coren is a smarmy c’unt. I wouldn’t bat an eyelid if the fucker is sent down.
FFS, regardless of the individual, there’s an important principle involved here. Play the fucking ball, TW, not the twat.
sadly, because coren really is a smug c*&t, you are right

Bleak House and chancery ‘ers “the lawyer lies in his chambers like a maggot in a nut”.
Coren is a prime example of the nepotism infesting Britain.
The picture of the Herald’s front page is on Twitter
I think Mr Coren’s error isn’t so much in Tweeting the identity of this caught-offside footballer, but is Tweeting this information when his employer may have been served with the injunction. Rest of us can take comfort in Spartacus and Streisand plus the fact we haven’t actually been served injunctions.
The RSPCA will sort them out on your behalf, but what about us mongrels?.
Does this mean you face jail for your hints Guido? Hope not, have to say…
Guido’s no fool. He knows if he goes to jail he won’t have to pay for someone to stick a dildo up his arse plus no-one will ever know about it. Gawd bless ‘im and all who sail in ‘im.
1) The uk courts have no jurisdiction whatsoever on this for Guido.
2) Guido (to the best of my knowledge) has only ever repeated injunction-related posts/hints for information that was already in the public domain in one form or another.
3) The injunction never should have been granted in the first place because they’re supposed to only be used to protect yourself or your family against serious harm/death, not just to stop you from looking silly in a newspaper.
I don’t think guido has anything to worry about.
Anyway, if Cameron saw someone being taken to court and threatened with jail just for repeating gossip on a celeb, I think Cameron would step in and stop it dead in its tracks. A bit like he did with the royal wedding street parties, where he basically said:
“fuck the councils and their red tape, and fuck the abused technicalities of the law, I’m the PM, and I say that if you want to do it, and it’s not going to hurt anyone, then you fucking do it because that’s your right.”
Cameron’s often a wishy-washy twat, but in cases like this I think he’d step in (he knows he’d get a shit load of votes from it apart from anything else)
Both BBC and ITV news reports say “The Journalist who revealed the name of the celebrity on Twitter may be named”.
A smug shyster on the BBC News channel has just claimed that:-
–the Herald is subject to the English Courts as it is owned by and English company and some copies may be sold in England.
–the editor of the Herald is breaking the law as “he was aware of the English courts ruling” and Scotland is a signatory to the European Human Rights Act.
So, if I was, say, an elderly Australian with a major shareholding in a London based company and I owned newspapers and TV channels in 42 countries and one of them in, say, Azerbaijan (yes they are party to the EHRA) published info embargoed in England, then I could get nicked?
Sorry, typo—-”may not be named”
yes, I would have thought that ownership is irrelevant; it’s the publishing/selling jurisdiction that’s relevant.
eg I could own an english-based auction web-site, and sell nazi memorabilia which is illegal to sell in germany but which is perfectly legal to sell in the uk. I could stop people who use german delivery/customer addresses from being able to see/bid on it, but germany can’t tell me that I need to shut down my website.
Ownership is totally irrelevant as far as I can see, it’s purely the publishing/selling jurisdiction that’s relevant.
If the paper is being printed in scotland, and the paper’s official distribution network only includes scotland, then they can’t be sued.
If, however, the official distribution network does include england, then they could be sued, but I doubt that’s the case.
The “some copies might find their way somewhere else because some people we don’t employ might take it on the train and show their mates” defence doesn’t seem to stand up very well.
“The “some copies might find their way somewhere else because some people we don’t employ might take it on the train and show their mates” defence doesn’t seem to stand up very well.”
I meant it doesn’t stand up very well as a means of prosecution; you can’t prosecute someone for something that’s out of their jurisdiction/control.
Hmm – when Google news autorefreshed (what a pain!) all mention of the story had vanished.
Is the Sunday Herald website being blocked?
Seems that way
Up here in Jockland…. the Herald website isn’t blocked (probably just busy) but it doesn’t have the front page or details online. I saw the front page in the newspaper shop today, and it was as had been widely reported. I’m down in England next week so may bring a copy down! FREEDOM!
Here you go

The Herald official website seems to be blocked but i found this elsewhere !
I wonder who that could be ?
Giggs looks a bit like Desperate Dan. Seems he’s spent so much money on legal fees he can’t afford razor blades.
Would that be a Prison issue shirt he is wearing ?
If not he could save Ken (Prison doesn’t work) Clarke a few quid by supplying his own !
So, someone gets sent to prison (potentially) for telling the truth?
Parliament has to step in and overrule this nonsense – and quickly.
Normally I would heartily agree with you, but this cu’nt is a right cu’nt
Coren must have been down the pub – gone to the toilet and left his “twitter” enabled mobile phone in the trusty company of half a dozen friends….One of whom must have typed this on for a laugh.
I am sure Mr Coren can give the names of 10 people who were in the pub at the time – all of whom will deny being the one playing this practical joke.
Case dismissed !!!

He’s funny in the same way Marcus Brigstocke is funny………….
The only thing I’d laugh at Marcus Brigstocke for is if he’s lowered into a meat grinder feet first.
He’d keep an African village going for at least 6 months, the selfish cuпt.

Oh no, he’s not that bad. No-one’s that fucking bad, Shitstocke exists on his own special level of comedy, right next to cancer (not as funny as).

…or the ultimate foul.
Not necessarily, the next time somebody scores a goal the euphoria might result in a team roast around the touchline.
From what I understand, technically speaking, about 20million uk people are currently in contempt of court for this, and about 200million people from outside the uk could in theory have an extradition order served against them.
In practice, all the people that have simply repeated information that was already widely available on the internet (and in foreign newspapers) can’t be prosecuted because the court would simply say that the information was in the public domain already.
The only people who could, realistically, be prosecuted, are the one or 2 people who published the first posting, and even then they could only be prosecuted if they actually knew for a fact (eg was an insider at the court) who/what the injunction was about.
They can only really prosecute the first person who broke the injunction, once it’s in the public domain they can’t prosecute anyone else (much as they’d like to think they can, they can’t; an injunction is, legally speaking, there to stop people from putting something into the public domain; once it’s in the public domain the injunction is legally speaking no longer enforceable)
So, they can prosecute whoever originally broke the injunction, but they can’t prosecute anybody else.
The lawyers are, I think, trying to get the details of the person of the first twitter account so they can try and trace things back to the person who originally broke the injunction; they’ve got no intention of prosecuting anyone else, they just want to find out who broke the injunction first and then take that person to court.
If the first person who broke the injunction is not a uk citizen, then there’s absolutely nothing they can do; they can’t prosecute that person, and they can’t prosecute anyone who repeated the information after it had been put in the public domain. The lawyers involved will tell you otherwise (ie they’ll threaten everyone else too), but realistically they can’t do anything at all apart from prosecute the very first person who broke the injunction (and then they can only do that if that person is a uk citizen)
What is the original person was a kid and therefore under the age of criminality?
Two of my children are under 16,have both known for ages who the shagger is and have chatted about the case with their mates on line.
ah, well then they’d try and find out who told the kid; they’re trying to trace it back to the original source that made the first leak.
An injunction is only enforceable whilst the information is not yet available freely/widely in the public domain.
Once the information is available widely in the public domain, the injunction becomes invalid/unenforceable, in fact that’s the very definition of an injunction; they are to STOP something from being put into the public domain, they are NOT to stop someone repeating something that’s already in the public domain.
The only person you can prosecute is the person who first broke the injunction.
This is why Sir Fred’s Injunction got lifted; the courts saw the information was in the public domain and said that therefore, by definition the injunction can no longer be valid/enforceable.
The lawyers CAN go after the person who originally broke the injunction (but only if they’re a uk citizen), they CAN’T go after anybody else, much as they like to pretend they can.
I can understand Cameron being a useless twat, but where is the Tory right? Come on you idle fuckers start demanding that the judges be arrested.
I sentence you to hang!
Ok then, hang the fucking judges! By the way, love the idea of a daisy cutter on the BBC. Oh, you were being ironic? I’m not.
Time we had that written constitution Dave.
1. Freedom of speech
2. Freedom of the press
3. The right to bear arms
4. The Right To Tell The BBC To FUCK RIGHT OFF!!!!
And the EU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well said!
Two splendid and thoroughly sensible additions to any written constitution
And LibLabCon!!!!!!
The abolition of the LibLabCon-spiracy must be part of a new constitution for our renewed nation.
The problem with writing a constitution is that:
1) As the US government has shown, polticians (except a nople few) will just ignore it
2) Lefty, fabian, socialist, statist judges won’t uphold it
3) Politicians will just assume those rights not specifically mentioned in the constitution don’t exist
And without one they can do what they bloody well like, especially if the population are unarmed.
Time for a spring uprising here. Lampost and piano wire style.

Did he say anything interesting for once?
Guido – from what I’ve seen, the tweets in question seem to have been published during the day – so either he was drunk already or he just didn’t give a f*ck. Good on him I say! Gareth Barry is a twat.
Giles is famously touchy about subs not changing one single letter of his copy, so even if his tweets were subbed I’m sure the poor subs would have had, with great reluctance, to have passed it without any changes, no doubt horrified at the thought that Coren had just lowered himself into a bucket of shit, and there was nothing they could do about it. Shame.
When has the truth ever mattered?

The funniest thing I ever saw re Giles Cohen was his appearance on Celebrity Mastermind. Covinced of his genius he breezed through his questions until asked ‘which Shakespeare character demanded his pound of flesh’ , or similar.
He is a whining, spoilt twat.
Given his ancestry, you’d have thought he’d have known that one…
*applause*
The only reason most of you on here do not support Ryan Giggs is because he is Left Wing
Very good!
+1
Well you are wrong I Says i have no idea what Ryan Giggs political views are
and that is not the issue here,he is in the wrong plain and simple that is what this is about.This was a player that is about to retire from what was a glittering career
and this is what he will be largely remembered for now,he is an international
laughing stock
No, it was a Joke anon; I says was using “Left Wing” in the football player position sense (ie “he plays on the left wing”) as an extra meaning rather than “he’s a socialist”- it was a play on words.
Ah I See it says forgive me a bit slow on the uptake today nice play
on words
If it’s any consolation, I also very nearly replied with the same thing you did, but then I did a double-take before hitting the reply button and it twigged in my head.
I have no interest in football whatsoever. When I die, I don’t want to be thinking this on my deathbed:
“I spent about 20% of my waking life watching people kick a bit of dead pig around a field and committing pointless statistics and history about previous kick-bits-of-dead-pig-about-a-field events to memory. Oh, fuck, what have I done? I could have been spending that time with my kids, or shagging the missus. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. I’ve just wasted 20% of my life and now it’s too fucking late to get it back.”
He’s plays on the left wing (left side of the football pitch) you fuckard!
Memo to Schillings: I am not interested in footy and had never heard of this guy before you started to represent him. Now I know far more about him than I want to.
I had no idea who the “world famous actor” was either, and I still don’t recognise him even after seeing his picture and finding out his name; I’ve never seen him on the telly or in films before because I’ve never watched any of the shit he’s been in.
So, he went from being someone I’d never heard of and didn’t even know what he looked like, to being someone I’ll forever associate with being a complete twat.
Judging from what I’ve read on the web, about 99% of the world population who have googled about it are in the same situation as me; most people seem to have never heard of him before he got the injunction and a newspaper story about it would have originally only registered in the long-term memory of about 5 people.
Put it this way; getting a blow job in a car from Miss Divine Brown was the smartest career move Hugh Grant ever made (beyond getting a barber to style his trademark floppy locks).
Seeking injunctive relief may perform the same magic on the career of ‘Captain Jack de Barbebleu’.
I only have to type “ry” into google, and the predictive search comes up with the result in the top 5 before I even press return/search.
You’d normally have to pay a web developer or marketing company millions for that kind of google ranking.
or, “injunction foo” will have the same predictive seach result/effect.
yes, that injunction was a really good idea, wasn’t it?
fucking twat.
I doubt i’d even be allowed to mention being mentioned about being mentioned.
I’m off to Schillings first thing tomorrow>
Gareth Barry’s just failed to score from 2 yards out – should have gone to S
chillingspecsavers!I was being interviewed for a new job, when one of the panel noticed that I’d become quite fidgety.
He tried to put me at ease by saying, “There’s no need to be nervous you know.”
In hindsight, answering, “Nervous? No.. I just wish that I’d wiped my arse properly,” was probably not the cleverest response
Call me 07123 456789.
You’re gabbing on the phone – and the voicemail passcode is not the default !
This is just the start, let me assure you. There will be many other journalists, including Fawkes going down before this is all over. I have already told you that there is no such thing as free speech in this country; it is just an illusion the Establishment have created to fool you lot, the Proles. This business of twitters and blogging has gone too far and has to stop, especially as I seem to be an innocent victim of these blogs. I am a serious and dedicated politician with no flaws, and of the utmost integrity, therefore this whole nonsense has to stop.
Fawkes and his blog are based overseas surely? Unless I have the wrong info, Fawkes is Irish and his blog Virgin Islands based? Therefore it would be hard to prosecute him.
Clever sod. His server is in Jiangsu, China. I’d love to see some plod trying to talk to the People’s Armed Police about censorship!
But it would not be difficult to cut his throat across,have his tongue torn out by the roots, and buried in the sands of the sea at low water mark.
Harsh but fair.
Objection!
I am not a prole, I’m a pleb.

Football’s world governing body is blocking the release of a document that would reveal the identity of two officials who have been forced to repay bribes, according to a BBC investigation.
I bet Jack Warner’s one of them…
He was a straight-up copper. Please do not malign his memory
You mean George Dixon?
Has the Scottish Herald breached any injunction? Scotland has a distinct legal system to England. Anyway I’m sure Schillings are hot footing it, at this very moment, to Haggis land, to obtain an injunction at the Court of Session.
Ive heard the fuckwits Schillings who are complete ignorant twats, just like there lame brain client didnt fully twigg that Scotland is actaully another country and has a completely independent legal system and law seperat from the one in England, which is why they failed to place a seperate injunction in the law courts in Edinburgh
It would also appear to still not have sunk in in as Ive heard that they are requesting the English Attorney General take action against the Sunday Herald. If that were to happen, expect the Scottish legal equivelant of a middle digit being stuck up
Maybe Schillings tried to get an injunction in Scotland but the Scottish judges just told them to fuck off (ie “sorry, injunctions are to protect people from harm, they’re not to stop you looking like a twat when you can’t control your todger”)
If, however, as you suggest, Schillings didn’t/doesn’t understand that Scotland has its own legal system, then if I were the subject of the injunction, I’d currently be employing a different law firm to sue Schillings for gross negligence.
In fact I’d be suiing Schillings for gross negligence anyway if I were the subject of the injunction, because if they couldn’t get an injunction for Scotland, then I’m sure the subject of the injunction would have said “well, there’s no fucking point getting it in England, is there, or in trying to find the tweeters?”
Whichever way you look at it, either the advice given by Schillings was negligent, or the subject of the injunction is so stupid that he should be put in a fucktard home for his own protection. (ie if he’s that stupid, can he even make a slice of toast without killing himself?)
The Herald Scotland website is being censored by the UK government, proving that they can censor the internet at the drop of a hat.
The website itself is still up.
I guess it’s possible that Herald Scotland are blocking connections from England, but that doesn’t seem likely.
I may have been driving
Too far, too fast – you got 25 points, after all!
Oh Good! I get to up my profile, get myself more publicity and more work. Suckers!
what did Giles Coren say about Gareth Barry?
He said he was a Huhne.
what did he actually say i’m guessing it was that Barry was another
one of these footballers having an affair is that it?
Have to say that i didn’t even know who Coren was before all this
Barry himself is a rather boring footballer who those in football circles
have very little time for.
If he has taken out some sort of injunction this will be the only thing he has done that people are talking about as his football rarely merits a mention
O/T, but Tim Berners-Lee has a proxy doxy –
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/news/8528304/Internet-pioneer-Sir-Tim-Berners-Lee-casts-a-web-of-intrigue-with-his-love-life.html
It notes that the lady in question is “director of the World Wide Web Foundation, a charity launched by Sir Tim in Uganda in 2009.”
I shall refrain from the obvious Private Eye… (cont. p94).
Private eye front page with seal opps room had me in stitches
David Davies has done an excellent article in the DM and there was gem in Peter Hitchens about the law being hard on self defence of your home as it is competetion to the legal system (well lefty version of it at any rate).
Coren bears a striking resemblance to Ryan Giggs.
So no fucker had ever heard of Giles Coren and Gareth Barry before. But now Giles has outed Gareth’s injunction then ever man and his dog knows their names.
Is the Super Injunction an instant route to mass publicity for the boring?
So the wigged judges reckon the rich and famous should have super injunctions to prevent their kiddy winks knowing what shits their parents are. Why?
Why have kiddy winks no rights in law? If my dad were a serial whorer I would have liked to have known.
Sorry Son
“Nice arse”Mr Khan
What’s up with the Herald website? Nothing in cache either
Its been accessible on and off all day. Most recently ten minutes ago
Hilarious diva-rant from Giles to his sub-eds.
The man is clearly a bit precious about his oeuvre but good on him for making a stand on this super-injunction bollocks. Or getting pissed and forgetting what he was doing. Whichever.
bit more sympathy for Giles Coren might be nice. When its you thats on the scaffold, Guido, you might appreciate some.
This Coren bloke seems to be a complete tit. He’s not writing Great Literature, he’s writing little articles that a few people will read and then wipe their arses on it. I doubt if most readers would even get to his precious final sentence. It’s all over one letter for God’s sake. The man’s a pill.
1. Schillings would need to apply for an interdict, in the Court of Session. They would need to apply for it against someone or something. The Herald already published the material, so it’s too late.
2. Schillings wouldn’t apply for an interdict if they thought they wouldn’t get one. So they won’t.
3. The Herald frontpage I saw yesterday. Later on, they had all sold out. The material isn’t on the webpage and this is deliberate.
4. I believe the Herald are advised by one Paul McBride QC, who has sprung quite a few notorious Glaswegians from gaol in his time. He knows what he is doing.
Hopefully this will rein in these ridiculous injunctions, which should only ever be applied against named individuals and organisations.
How apt. http://tinyurl.com/4x4hxxt
He’ll be able to give a decent review of prison food at least, if his bottom ever recovers long enough to sit down and type.
Giles Coren
Is he “the little jingle that the reader takes with him into the weekend”?
Or is he the spoilt little brat who only got his job through daddy’s connections?
