24th Jul 2021 | Local News

On This Day

A huge warning to those who feel they can issue libel charges without understanding truth as a defence. In 1987Former deputy chairman of the Conservative Party, Jeffrey Archer, was awarded record libel damages at the High Court. The Daily Star newspaper was ordered to pay the MP £500,000 damages, along with up to £700,000 costs, for a front-page story in November 1986 alleging that Mr Archer had paid to have sex with a prostitute. However, in July 2001, Archer was found guilty of perjury and perverting the course of justice at a 1987 trial and was sentenced to four years in prison.
