Mosley wins a journalistic convert to his cause

What happened when the persuasive Max Mosley met the perceptive Lucy Kellaway? The short answer is that she came away hoping that he succeeds in persuading the European Court of Human Rights to change the law on privacy.

For those who don't know - can there by anyone? - Mosley is seeking to impose a legal requirement on newspapers to notify people in advance if they plan to publish a story about them.

"His proposal sounds perfectly reasonable," observes Kellaway, in her Financial Times magazine interview with Mosley. And she underlines that by concluding: "I hope he wins in Strasbourg."

There is much to appreciate in her article. Overall, it proves, once again, that the News of the World made a mighty error when it invaded Mosley's privacy.
