“A leading lawyer tonight called for independent regulation of the press, and for ‘all credible media organisations’ to withdraw from the ‘farcical’ Press Complaints Commission. Sir Ken Macdonald, visiting professor of law at the LSE and the former director of public prosecutions, told an audience of editors and lawyers: ‘The press may think the PCC works, but they are living in a dream world. Nobody else does.'”
