 Boris Johnson MP: Mo Fayed - Granted Inquest and Jury
In a decision of almost complete insanity the Court of Appeal has decided that the inquest into the deaths of Diana and Dodi must be held with a jury, and the celebrations are under way.

As I've tried to show, the Court of Appeal knew fine well a jury shouldn't be appointed, but they felt it had to be under s 8(3)(d) (which was hardly argued before Butler Sloss).

After the armistice Carson was awarded a life peerage and accepted an appointment as Lord of Appeal in Ordinary from 1921-29.
