The Examiner is claiming £160k plus legal fees, totalling £167k.
Will see what they say in the full story tomorrow.'"
There is £35 k court costs ie the time of the judge etc etc
The costs of the legal teams will probably be borne by the losing party i would guess that both teams had a minimum of a barrister plus a junior and a solicitor in attendance. They would have been paid by the parties at the private rate that would be a minimum of £2k a day for the barristers ( anyone half decent would have been charging £5k a day).
that for two days doubled adds up.
The legal advice and conferences held before the trial would also have been at the same rate. I would be amazed if the legal fees were less than £50 k
