Sir James Dyson loses libel claim against Daily Mirror publisher

By Sammy Jenkins & PA MediaBBC News

Sir James Dyson has lost his libel claim against the publisher of the Daily Mirror .

The Inventor was suing

Mr Dyson told court the article was " a personal attack on All That I have done and achieved in my lifetime and is highly distressing and hurtful".

But in a ruling on Friday, Mr Justice Jay dismissed The Inventor 's claims.

Mr Justice Jay said: " In The Present case the Claimant cannot demonstrate that he has suffered financial loss as a result of these publications.

" Nor can he show that his philanthropic work, particularly directed to Young People and schools, has been harmed in any way. "

The article, by Brian Reade, referred to Mr Dyson as " the vacuum-cleaner tycoon who championed Vote Leave due to the economic opportunities it would bring to British industry before moving his global Head Office to Singapore".

Mr Reade continued: " Kids, talk The Talk but then screw Your Country and if anyone complains, tell them to suck it up. "

During the two day trial, Justin Rushbrooke KC, for Sir James, said in written submissions that the articles, both in print and online, " constituted a serious and unjustified slur on Sir James's reputation, business and personal".

However, MGN defended The Claim , including by arguing that Mr Reade's article was " honest opinion".

Adrienne Page KC, for MGN, said The Words in the article were " substantially correct" and that Sir James could not dictate how the commentator posed them.
