Paul Dacre not Judge Eady is arrogant and amoral

Paul Dacre not Judge Eady is arrogant and amoral

Paul Dacre, the editor-in-chief of the Daily Mail and The Mail on Sunday, is in trouble with the law for paying £10,000 for copies of stolen photographs of Madonna's wedding to Guy Ritchie. The judge who ruled in Madonna's favour is Mr Justice Eady. Recently, Paul Dacre abused his position at the Daily Mail and The Mail on Sunday to launch a private attack upon the judge. Dacre claimed that Mr Justice Eady is both "arrogant and amoral", and that the Human Rights Act is wretched. Madonna used the HRA to launch her claim that the conduct is an invasion of her privacy. Given Dacre's unjustified attack both upon the judge and the HRA, I would argue that it is in fact Paul Dacre who is both arrogant and totally amoral.
