🚨 The High Court has ordered Claudio Di Giovanni to pay our full costs after we beat his defamation claims. He sued me, @Coramazov and @millmediauk after @_TheLondoner exposed his subletting scheme. Mrs Justice Steyn: "The Defendants are, unarguably, the successful party".

Why have the Met become reliant on a Harry Potter-themed facial recognition tool? Read my piece, where I spent the day following the force as it tries to crack down on shoplifting, to find out.
Shoplifting has almost doubled in London since 2023. Now the Met are fighting back, with fake bait products, undercover operations and a Harry Potter-themed facial recognition algorithm. Read @AndrewKersley's dispatch: the-londoner.co.uk/police-cr…
