Here’s the vast, 450-paragraph judgment of Andrew Smith J in OFT v Abbey and others, a judgment that will depress those poor banks even more, though it will cheer up money saving experts, impoverished law students, poor pupil barristers and wealthy banking litigation partners.

I always thought this campaign would succeed eventually – though of course I realise this is far from the end. The other thing that’s interesting is to wonder what effect this judgment might have on the UK economy: I can’t think of a more critical time this judgment could have been delivered.
