Do celebrities have a right to keep their indiscretions private?

After all of the speculation, injunctions, gossips and twitter storm. The identity of the footballer at the centre of the Imogen Thomas injunction case was revealed by an MP in the house of commons yesterday evening using parliamentary privilege.

Lib Dem John Hemming says he named Ryan Giggs because he was concerned about the threat by his lawyers to sue individual users of twitter, but do you think that Mr Giggs and his fellow celebrities have a right to gag the press to prevent any indiscretions becoming public?

The injunctions are granted to protect the celebrities right to privacy and family life. Ryan Giggs has a wife and two young children, why should they be exposed to this sort of thing if there is no public interest?

Or do you believe that censoring the press like this sets a dangerous precedent. If footballers can hide their affairs using this law so can politicians, bankers and even 大象传媒 presenters? Do you think that's fair? After 2- Should muslims be doing more to get women involved in running mosques? And we'll be talking about women's rights in the villages of India with Chetna Gala Sinha.
