§ POLICE - GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATIONS - MISUSE OF PRIVATE INFORMATION - BREACH OF CONFIDENCE - ARTICLE 8 EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTSALI v CHIEF CONSTABLE OF BEDFORDSHIRE [2023] EWHC 938. Full and edited judgment in DOWNLOADS.NOTE The judgment is a first rate example of the use of human rights law to sidestep what would ordinarily not be tortious at common law. Here, liability succeeded on each of the above heads - but would not have done so in negligence due to a novus actus interveniens (a new intervening act).Moreover, on the same facts, in 2022 the claimant had failed alleging vicarious liability on the part of a local authority (Ali v Luton Borough Council [2022] EWHC 132 - in the Library).Posted: 25th May 2023 7:10 pm

§ NOTICE - PUBLIC ORDER BILL
The Public Order Bill is awaiting the Royal Assent.
Among other offences, Part 1 creates a series of specific offences, each addressing the facts of a recent disruptive protest. Its effect may alter a number of judgments relating to criminal damage and Articles 9-11 European Convention on Human Rights.
For example, Attorney-General’s Reference [2022] EWCA Crim 1259 (following the acquittal of the defendants who pulled down the Colston statue); Reference by the Attorney-General for Northern Ireland [2022] UKSC 32 (Ziegler - see paras 21-41); and R v Brown [2022] EWCA Crim 6 (protester who glued himself to the roof of an aircraft).
The full and edited judgments of these, and other relevant judgments, will be placed online soon after the effects of the Public Order Act 2023 have been digested.
