1 would object to.
2
3 MR. RAMPTON: I am perfectly happy with the first three
4 paragraphs on page 1.
5
6 MR. MORRIS: Hold on one second.
7
8 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Just find your place.
9
10 MR. MORRIS: Yes.
11
12 MR. RAMPTON: So, the first three paragraphs on page 1 in which
13 Mr. Morris wants, as he calls it, background only --
14 whether that is right or -- I do not object to those
15 anyway.
16
17 If I have understood his numbering system correctly, the
18 next paragraph is the first complete paragraph on
19 page 2: "As part of a more specific research, working at
20 McDonald's Kentish Town", et cetera, perfectly all right.
21 Some of the quotations which subsequently appeared in the
22 Guardian article were taken from the Manager -- it should
23 be Assistant Manager -- at that store, as well as a Manager
24 at the Holborn store.
25
26 MR. MORRIS: It says "a Manager" at the Holborn store.
27
28 MR. RAMPTON: No. I am sorry.

30 MR. JUSTICE BELL: The second sentence of that paragraph and the
31 first sentence of the next paragraph really go with the

36 further than that. In other words, one cannot then look at
37 the Guardian article to see what Lynval and Mark Ryan said
38 -- or, indeed, at interviews themselves.
39
40 The next one is on page 3; and here Mr. Morris' numbering
41 has lost me a bit. If he means by "paragraph 1" the first
42 complete paragraph -----
43
44 MR. JUSTICE BELL: He does. His numbers are complete paragraphs
45 on each page.
46
47 MR. RAMPTON: Then it is a nought, is it, if it is an incomplete
48 paragraph?
49
50 MR. JUSTICE BELL: The only part he wants in on that page is the
51 one sentence, which there is no harm in me reading out,
52 I do not suppose.
53
54 MR. RAMPTON: Which is?
55
56 MR. JUSTICE BELL: "HL said that the manager they had interviewed
57 said that the stores were understaffed."
58
59 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I do not accept that. That is wholly
60 objectionable. I thought it was that one. We cannot have
