Boris Johnson's Daily Mail Job Sparks Ethics Controversy

Boris Johnson, who resigned from Parliament amid the Partygate scandal, has joined The Daily Mail as a columnist. The newspaper announced that Johnson would publish his first column on Friday afternoon and every Saturday going forward. However, Johnson's new gig has landed him in more ethical hot water as he's accused of violating anti-corruption policies by only informing the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments of his new job 30 minutes before it was publicly announced.

Prince Harry's Lawsuit Against Royal Family Hindered by Family Tensions

Prince Harry blames the royal family for delaying his phone hacking lawsuit against The Daily Mail, as lawyers for the newspaper argue that the case should be thrown out because it was not filed soon enough. Harry and six other claimants allege that Associated Newspapers Ltd. commissioned the "breaking and entry into private property" by hiring private investigators to illegally bug homes and cars and record phone conversations. The publisher denies the allegations. The litigation is based on events dating as far back as 1993, and the cases were not filed within a six-year limitation period.

Prince Harry's ongoing legal battles against UK tabloids.

Prince Harry returned to court for a second day of hearings in a phone hacking lawsuit he brought with Elton John and other celebrities against Associated Newspapers Ltd., the publisher of The Daily Mail. The publisher denies the allegations and is seeking to throw out the case, arguing that the claims are too old and rely on information they turned over in confidentiality for a 2012 probe into media law breaking. The lawsuit alleges the publisher hired private investigators to illegally bug homes and cars and to record phone conversations, invading the privacy of the famous plaintiffs.
