Live tweet thread follows: Image GL is present in court - he is waering a casual jacked a green top and light brown slacks. He has been invited to sit in court, not the dock.

Good morning from Killymeal House in Belfast. This is the final day of Morrison v Belfast Film Festival. Closing submissions are currently being read by the judge and there will be a hearing at noon for comments on those submissions, questions and clarifications. I will... Image NC the 3 July email - its status appears to be in doubt in this claim. SD does not deal with it in his subs. As a matter of fact the 3 July must be dealt with - even if SD persuades you it was not part of C's pleaded case. It's nevertheless of enormous relevance

Welcome to Week 2 Day 7 Session 1 of Morrison v Belfast Film Festival at Killymeal House, Belfast. Michele Devlin is giving evidence, again. Here she is arriving.

Drama here at the beginning of Day 5 of Morrison v BFF in Belfast. Morrison's legal team have informed the judge that they will not be ready to start until 2pm. The judge is livid. Says it is not for counsel to dictate when court sits. Neither barrister representing Morrison is in court. Her solicitor Simon Chambers is fielding the questions. Judge said she is "disgusted" by being so "heavily disrespected" by one side.

I specifically told the BBC DG to his face in June that if he didn't keep his eye on the gender nuttiness within his corporationg it would destroy it. Last month a member of its Editorial Guidelines and Standards Committee wrote:

"A BBC presenter contacted me... ...about a month after I started working with the EGSC. He put me in touch with a reporter and a producer. All three were from different parts of the BBC but had shared concerns about BBC coverage of the trans issue...
