Re: Public Interest Macintyre V Associated Newspapers (Boris Johnson/ Daily Mail)
Why? The cases are in no way comparable. You're conflating the equivalent of dangerous driving with a parking ticket. In the Macintyre ruling, he was deceiving two people who were emotionally close to him, and that's a very relevant character test (though Bojo seems to get a free pass on this.) In the other, the guy was deceived by someone else and did something mildly naughty; proves nothing.
If anything it might give the courts an opportunity to draw a clear distinction.
