Mr X. So a very wealthy establishment figure can buy anonymity

[Jaggypinecone]

These things can never stay secret though - wonder who it is!

I’ll need more info than that - link?

I was thinking the same. Philip Green and Ryan Giggs are two recent, high profile super injunctioners who wasted their money.

Won't be long at all I think. Mind you speculation on here could be a sticky wicket so I'd be a bit wary.

He'll be named somewhere soon.

DH asked “have Mumsnet said who this is, yet?” this morning

I normally couldn't give a toss but I'm so incensed that if you are part of the establishment you can buy your way out of trouble. In all the political turmoil and unrest just now it just reeks of them and us all the more. I have no clue and wouldn't be naming any names even if I had but it'll come out sooner or later.

I wonder if blind gossip will know soon?

Also, does this mean anonymity worldwide or just UK press?

Terrible.
Surely only UK?

Philip Green? There were allegations swirling around about him a while ago.

I can't read the whole article but I bet there's some clues in the times piece. Popbitch covered the clues and hints tricks a few years ago.

I doubt it's Philip Green. The cat's well and truly out of the bag where he's concerned, so what woul be the point?

would, sorry
