Celebrity ‘threesome’ injunction: Bercow bans MPs from naming couple
Commons speaker John Bercow has banned MPs from revealing the identity of the “celebrity threesome” couple in the House of Commons. An MP is said to have been planning to use parliamentary privilege to reveal the names of the mystery couple, whose identities have already been widely circulated. John Hemming, a former Liberal Democrat MP who named Ryan Giggs in the Commons when the footballer won a previous injunction to prevent reporting of an alleged affair, said he was disappointed by Mr Bercow’s move. The Times notes that British blogger Guido Fawkes has been able to name the celebrity as his site is based in Ireland and uses American-based internet servers
