Prince Harry loses biggie

The Daily Mail reports:

Prince Harry appeared to criticise the High Court judge who ruled against him in his failed case against the Daily Mail.

In an extraordinary 374-word statement the Duke of Sussex referenced Mr Justice Nicklin’s previous work for newspapers just hours after he delivered a landmark judgement in favour of this newspaper.

Released jointly with Baroness Lawrence, Harry’s statement said the ruling felt like there was ‘one rule for newspapers and another for claimants’.

It’s more like there is a burden of proof, and the problem for Harry is he had none. His entire case was basically a theory that if the media had reported stuff about his wife, then they must have got hold of it illegally.

He failed entirely, and now may have to cough up 50 million pounds in costs, which must set a record for doing stupid things to see the wife happy.
