I know that the red-tops play fancy-free with Contempt of Court, but The Sun’s coverage today of the Delroy Grant case doesn’t so much as drive a coach and horses through the 1981 Act but makes a complete fucking mockery of it.

Am I just out of touch? Do the reporting restrictions that were hammered into us by news editors past matter any more? Your views would be appreciated.
