What happens if Helen & Dave lose the verdict and McDonalds get an injunction?
McDonald’s will make efforts at the end of the trial to obtain an injunction to try to stop Helen & Dave handing out leaflets. If McDonald’s are granted the injunction they are seeking, Helen & Dave could be jailed if they (or any of their ‘agents’) hand out the London Greenpeace 6-sided Factsheet or similar words. NOTE: This would ONLY apply to Helen & Dave. If McDonald’s try to use the courts to extend it to others this should be fought tooth and nail Of course, Helen & Dave don’t have any ‘agents’, and control nothing and nobody except themselves. But McDonald’s may attempt to portray the McLibel Support Campaign as their ‘agents’ in order to try to silence the two Defendants. They will fail.
