Sir Philip Green faced new calls to be stripped of his knighthood yesterday as he was outed as the businessman alleged to have gagged staff from speaking out about bullying and sexual harassment.
The retail magnate was named in the House of Lords by the former Labour cabinet minister Lord Hain, despite a court order preventing details of the case from being made public.
The former Labour cabinet minister said that he had been contacted by someone “intimately involved in the case” and felt a “duty” to reveal the name using parliamentary privilege.
The collapse of the privacy injunction, which cost Sir Philip about £500,000 to secure, will renew controversy about how the law is being used by the wealthy to mask allegations of wrongdoing.
