Harry To Give Evidence In Tabloid Phone-Hacking Trial

Prince Harry is suing Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) for damages, claiming journalists at its titles committed phone hacking and other illegal methods of obtaining personal information.

He has accused MGN’s papers, which include the Sunday Mirror and Sunday People, of “blagging” or gaining information by deception and the use of private investigators for unlawful activities.

The duke has been asked to attend court today in case the opening speeches finish before the end of the day, so there is a possibility he may enter the witness box today afternoon. Otherwise he is expected to begin his evidence tomorrow, when he will face cross-examination from MGN’s lawyers.

Reds survive late surge to reach Carabao Cup semis

After a full and imposing pre-season under his belt, Liverpool’s Harvey Elliott had lofty ambitions this season. Could he crack a regular starting spot? The diminutive left-footed playmaker, signed amid so much promise from Fulham five years ago, certainly would not have anticipated his first start of the season coming in mid-December. But on a torrential night on the south coast, Elliott shone brightest as the Carabao Cup holders, ultimately, sneaked through at Southampton last night.
