Maybe more to it as I’m not sure why you’d continue to sign keeping the eggs frozen, if you’d met someone and married them.

It seems to undermine custody and child support payments?

It might be that the mother isn't claiming support or in this case has no grounds to claim support?

The father is suing for the financial support he naturally feels obliged to provide I guess.

Or possibly for emotional trauma/reputational damage in that form?

I think a big part hinges on Hammersmith IVF not being negligent, and that they complied with industry standards at the time. It sucks (maybe) in this instance, but I think the court decision is based on the fact that they did nothing illegal so can't be liable for damages

Yeah. What a sad muddle

A princely pun.

Also, that John Sentamu thing is priceless.

4) "Peddling"? Really?

Rheinmetall's controlling stake is sure to upset the "we stood alone" brigade.

mespilus jr. & I cashed this in for a tasty well filled (cold) mince pie.

Sports Direct Cakes?

I guess it depends upon whether Luke Johnson accrued any valuable freeholds with the expansion of PatVal?

"According to medical records presented to an Arizona court, a doctor gave a check-up to the woman 37 weeks before she gave birth and found no major changes to her health."

Great story about a Brit family in NZ who trashed the beach and now have become like pokemon with people following them round trying to glimpse them doing other messed up shit.

Don't see how. It's impossible to prove a conception date, and the patient could easily have been assaulted after that check-up.

Although it's a reminder that there are some genuinely fucked up people in the world.
