The lawyers gave people justice, and a law was needed instead which "insists on responsible journalism", he said.


B0llocks, it's been abused left, right and centre by everyone from dodgy solicitors to private companies and the rich and famous...

Lord Martin told peers national newspapers "specialise" in "attacks" on people adding: "If they want to save funds, if they don't want success fees to be paid, then why don't they get their facts right?"
