Talk:McAlpine v Bercow

Damages
Copied from the main SB article's Talk page. Basically, I suspect the damages are £15k, although of course the legal costs push up what she's having to cough up into the unpleasant category:

Not sure why Lord McAlpine would allow her to accept the £15k offer that was made back in January, before she forced him to drag her to court, but it's looking a little like he might have. The Express quotes his solicitor talking as if the offer has been accepted by both sides, but then goes on to contradict itself the following day by saying she's facing £50k damages. The Independent mentions £15k and also talks of some of the £100k legal bill being offset by insurance.Bromley86 (talk) 13:46, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
