Campaigners Accuse the Daily Mail of Intimidation

Daily Mail

There is potentially a campaign starting to stop newspapers like the Daily Mail trying to intimidate the 'BREXIT' Judges. The Appeal Court are in the process of deciding the legal merits of allowing MP's to debate how we leave the European Union by the triggering of Article 50. 

Ironically Tony Blair was heavily criticized by the press for taking us to war without seeking the approval of Parliament? Something that seems to have been forgotten?  

Freedom of speech, should not be used to intimidate Judges or our legal system. Politicians like Michael Howard should not be making statements like 'I know the judges will come to the right decision' I.e. the one that Michael Howard wants? Howard is a very experienced British politician, who served as the Leader of the Conservative Party and Leader of the Opposition from November 2003 to December 2005. He had previously held cabinet positions in the governments of Margaret Thatcher and John Major, including Secretary of State for Employment, Secretary of State for the Environment and Home Secretary.

This is not about which side of the argument you believe in. It is about allowing our Courts to do their job without fear of intimidation. 

It is about the right for our legal system to function without feeling threatened by the Daily Mail and its owner Rupert Murdock, or indeed any other media outlet that has a vested interest in a decision.
