Day 268 - 24 Jun 96 - Page 18

     
     1        making your submissions, you want to say there is a gap in
     2        the evidence here or there and that is because we did not
     3        realise this, that or the other, then you can make that
     4        comment.
     5
     6   MS. STEEL:  Well, I mean, I realise it is a bit late now, but
     7        actually I feel quite angry about the fact that Mr. Rampton
     8        did it, bearing in mind the amount of aggravation we get
     9        from him about giving advance notice of what our witnesses
    10        are going to be saying.
    11
    12        There is a further matter which I want to raise up, which
    13        is the list of things that Miss Lapport and Mr. Gravett are
    14        going to give in evidence.  I actually missed something off
    15        by accident, which is that Mr. Gravett will say that there
    16        were no pickets of McDonald's Head Office in 1987 and 1988.
    17
    18   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Let me make a note.  1987 and '88?
    19
    20   MS. STEEL:  Yes, that is right.
    21
    22   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes, thank you.
    23
    24   MS. STEEL:  Just one final thing, which is that I would like to
    25        ask for the Plaintiffs to produce the negatives of the
    26        photographs taken on the October 1989 picket.  I presume
    27        they do exist since the Plaintiffs seem to have made quite
    28        a lot of copies of them.
    29
    30   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  You have put that request.  I will wait and
    31        see what happens.  Now you are going to read Peter Heller
    32        first.  Do you want to leave, Mr. Rampton?
    33
    34   MR. RAMPTON:  I am grateful to your Lordship.
    35
    36   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Let me just get my volume.  Peter Heller
    37        should be at 1C and section L1.
    38
    39   MR. MORRIS:  So we are dealing with Peter Heller first.
    40
    MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes, he is first on your list.
    42
    43   MR. MORRIS:  Let us all see if we have all got the same things.
    44        I have got, if I can find it, of course --
    45
    46   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   Well, I will tell you what I have and the
    47        order I have got it in.  I have a letter dated the 15th
    48        July 1993 to the McLibel Support Campaign.  And then I have
    49        a letter dated the 29th May 1991.
    50
    51   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.
    52
    53   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Addressed to Miss Steel or appearing to be
    54        addressed to Miss Steel.  I have another letter 15th
    55        October 1995 addressed to you, reference your letter 21st
    56        September.
    57
    58   MR. MORRIS:  Yes.  There should be also a letter of 29th October
    59        1993, supplementary statement.
