Women to blame for rise in injunctions, says leading lawyer

Lady Deech, the head of the Bar Standards Board, said she blamed women who sell their stories for money for increasing use of the orders.

"This is no doubt an unpopular point of view on my part, but I feel quite ashamed by these women’s behaviour, although some say they have the right to “speak out” and “set the record straight.” What word do we have for women who make lots of money from illicit sex?"
