An online Twitter campaign has thwarted an attempt to gag the media from reporting an MP’s question.
Law firm Carter-Ruck, representing oil trading firm Trafigura, had insisted that an injunction obtained against the Guardian prevented it from reporting a question tabled by Paul Farrelly MP.
However, details of the question were posted on the social networking site Twitter, leading Carter-Ruck to withdraw its gagging attempt.
