Mr Justice Stewart:
"With no disrespect to the Court intended, I cannot see any reason for yet further costs and usage of Court time to be incurred today by us attending a telephone hearing, so any hearing should proceed on the basis neither I nor counsel will be participating. I trust my client's position is apparent from the above in any event. I hope proportionality will now prevail but should it not do so and your client insist on a hearing today, please ensure this email is placed before the Judge."
"(3) No such relief is to be granted so as to restrain publication before trial unless the court is satisfied that the applicant is likely to establish that publication should not be allowed.
(4) The court must have particular regard to the importance of the Convention right to freedom of expression and, where the proceedings relate to material which the respondent claims, or which appears to the court, to be journalistic, …(or to conduct connected with such material), to—
(a) the extent to which—
(i) the material has, or is about to, become available to the public; or
(ii) it is, or would be, in the public interest for the material to be published;
(b) any relevant privacy code."
