Obviously special rules applied, and her court was smaller than his.

I assume she was happy to accept 20% less money given that her court was smaller so she had to do less work?

What’s this got to do with LGBT? Is Kyrgios gay?

What a strange source. I thought msn was a news source not an opinion bank?

What i found curious was no mention for the details of the ruling, it made it sound like an outright victory when a lot of the claims were thrown out.

There once was a poster called pingpong

Born with a perfect working dingdong

He sliced it right off

And Ducky did scoff 

As pingpong was now a bird.

Which bit of the article is 'opinion' rather than factual?

Apart from the missing facts around the details of the ruling, a lot of hyperbole, language like "Incredibly" and "paralysed with fear" for example. Most journalist would use quote marks, or make it clear it was a description from a person, rather than describing an event there is no evidence for as though it is factual. Especially when the ruling found that the claims from the nurses were deeply exaggerated and that they had a personal vendetta against the doctor, who only ever followed the NHS policies. The ruling was against the NHS, not her...

All of which is fine by the way, for an opinion piece. My surprise was that I thought msn was just news, but maybe I am a decade or two out of date.

You do know the article was written by Giles Sheldrick and published in the Daily Express?

I assume MSN have just republished it as it was printed / published in the Express rather than writing it themselves?
