Former City lawyer who claims she had one-night stand with MP accused of enjoying ‘lust'

By
A FORMER City lawyer who claims she had a one-night stand with a married Tory MP was accused today of enjoying being “lusted after”.

 Patronia Campbell

Patronia Campbell, 49, alleges she had a night of passion with Huw Merriman, 42, after works drinks in 2011 when they were colleagues at Lehman Brothers International Europe and that he pressed her for an affair.
At the sixth day of an East London employment tribunal hearing, Ms Campbell claimed other members of staff at the US bank also wanted to have an affair with her.
But James Laddie, QC, for the bank, told her: “You love the idea of people lusting after you, don’t you?” Ms Campbell replied: “That’s just rude. No, that’s not true.”
She claims she was subjected to two-and-a-half years of bullying by Mr Merriman, a former Lehman Brothers manager and now MP for Bexhill and Battle in East Sussex.
She said he subjected her to unjustified criticism of her performance, engineered situations to allow others to criticise her and gave her unfair ratings in an annual review.

STRICTLY COME DANCING'S Giovanni Pernice cutely referred to Georgia May Foote as his "amore", when he wished her a happy 25th birthday this afternoon.   The dancer took to Instagram to post a steamy kissing snap of the pair, who met when they were partnered up for the BBC One dancing show last year. The couple couldn't have looked more loved-up if they'd tried in the romantic photo, which saw the petite actress delicately holding the dashing Italian's face. "Happy birthday Amore!!!" Giovanni captioned the message, which pictured the stars in matching black ensembles. Georgia has reportedly been dating the Sicilian, also 25, since December, shortly after she ended her eight-month romance with fellow Coronation Street star Sean Ward.

Organisational flaws: World T20 problems mount for India

By
NEW DELHI: Storm clouds were gathering Thursday over cricket's World T20, with organisers still to release tickets or confirm the venues, less than a month before the tournament begins in India. Hundreds of thousands of supporters are expected to attend the 16-team contest which begins on March 8, the first time India has hosted the world cup for the game's newest and most popular format. But with question marks over the presence of the West Indies and New Delhi yet to receive clearance to host matches, fans who need to secure flights, hotels and even visas are still unable to firm up travel plans. The official line from the Indian board is that any glitches will be ironed out and there is no cause for alarm. “Everything will be sorted out very soon,” Anurag Thakur, secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), said. But Paul Ford, co-founder of New Zealand's Beige Brigade fan club, said it was now simply too late for some fans. “We would ...
