I suppose one of the main stories that will be headlining today, will be the divorce settlement between Sir Paul McCartney and Heather Mills. No matter what people’s opinions are of the judgement and it appears that Ms Mills will going back to court to stop us ever hearing the judgement. The only person who comes out of these proceedings with any resemblance of honour will be Sir Paul. Heather Mills has manipulated the media at every chance, and when it has not gone her way she has used crocodile tears to win public opinion.

She will receive £24.3m which is double what Sir Paul wanted to pay but only a fifth of what she was claiming. Sir Paul is estimated to be worth between £400m and £800m depending on which story you read. An incredible amount of money, they will be people who say he could have afforded the £100m plus that Heather Mills was demanding. But it appears that the judge in this case has some common sense. Normally when making a judgement in a divorce settlement, the judge will take into account what contribution the wife has made in helping the career of the husband; well in this case we all know that she has made no contribution whatsoever to his career.

Her outburst yesterday on the steps of the high court was nothing but scandalous, so her daughter has to travel ‘B’ class while Sir Paul can travel ‘A’ class. What a load of twaddle, her daughter will receive £35,000 and Sir Paul will pay for a Nanny and her school fees. She needs a reality check there are a large amount of families in this country who don’t even have an income of that a year. Yesterday she destroyed any sympathy that the public had for her.
