You are watching bbc news. The so called Wagatha Christie legal battle has gone back to the High Court in london. Rebekah vardy is challenging the size of the costs claimed by Coleen Rooney after their Blockbuster Libel Trial two years ago. Lets go over to our correspondent at the royal court ofjustice. Take us through whats been happening this time in court and the arguments being made. I am at the High Court, where that Wagatha Christie dispute is back. You might remember that Rebekah Vardy lost that high Profile Libel Battle against Coleen Rooney, which was around two years ago, and the general rule when things like this happen is the loser ends up paying most of the winners legal costs, so Rebekah Vardy was asked to pay the legal costs for Coleen Rooney, and she was told to pay around 90 of those costs, and those were originally estimated to be around £540,000. The latest we are hearing is that has gone up to £1. 8 million. That is the issue at stake here today. That is what being debated at this hearing this week. Yesterday, when this debate was already going on, thejudge ruled that debate was already going on, the judge ruled that Coleen Rooneys lawyers did not mislead or commit misconduct over those legal costs but there are still other lines of debate that are being discussed, and thats going on today. There was also the headline grabbing claim around Rebekah Vardy� s lawyers making that Coleen Rooneys lawyers, who were allegedly, they were saying, racked up high bills, Five Star hotels, also dinner, drinks and a minibar bill. Yesterday, Coleen Rooneys lawyers said that was actually inaccurate, so this hearing is going on at night the protagonist is here, but we are expecting their hearing to conclude later today. We remember the first time around how high profile the case was. There was a Tv Drama created of it. How much Media Attention as it attracted this time . Definitely less than last time, and thats partly because Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy themselves are not here at this point, but what we know is this isnt The End of this battle, because today we will get some sort of conclusion to the hearing but it will be back going to line by line of those costs, so at some point this will come back to court and they might show up again. I was looking at some of the reports around this morning and i saw some stuff about Soccer Wives some stuff about Soccer Wives so you can imagine there is no interest even in the states, so it hasnt completely gone away. Our correspondent outside the royal Courts Ofjustice in royal courts of justice in central royal Courts Ofjustice in central london. We are waiting to go to westminster in a few minutes for the first Prime Ministers questions for some weeks because a Party Conference season. Ben wright is in the lobby at the comments in advance of it beginning again. Its been a few weeks, what a lot has happened. I wonder what we will be hearing about Rishi Sunak, questioning the Prime Minister today. Has many choices. The Prime Minister today. Has many choices. It the Prime Minister today. Has many choices. It has been a busy four weeks since the chamber last night for pmqs, and he is filling up now so it will get under way in the next few minutes. We broke for the Party Conferences, and they were strange. I thought labours was slightly morose, is the challenges of government really hit home with party members. The tories were strangelyjubilant, despite strangely jubilant, despite their drubbing in strangelyjubilant, despite their drubbing in the election, and the Lib Dems Cock A Hoop after the election result, so i wonder if those dynamics will be detectable in pmqs, but a lot has happened. Primarily, one of the stories dominating has been the row over the scale of donations that the Prime Minister received, in particular, in his time in opposition and once he was in number ten, thousands of pounds of clothes, spectacles, and this rumbled on and on and gave the opposition a bit of an open goal, really, and the rules around donations have subsequently been changed a bit, but there is a lot that Rishi Sunak might decide to go on. There obviously also been the Shake Up in number ten itself over the weekend, replacing sue gray, the prime Ministers Chief of staff, with morgan mcsweeney, after weeks of speculation that her future and rows of discontent that were obvious to see inside downing street. Rishi sunak may decide to pick up on that. Another important issue, small boats crossing the channel, the numbers remain high. On sunday there was a new Record Total for the year, 900 small boats crossed over, attempted to make the crossing, and i think that brings to about 25,000 the number of people who attempted to cross the channel so far this year, so that could be an issue that Rishi Sunak decides to go on. Issue that Rishi Sunak decides to no on. , to go on. Something else attracting to go on. Something else attracting a to go on. Something else attracting a lot to go on. Something else attracting a lot of to go on. Something else i attracting a lot of attention later today is the tory party leadership contest, the next segment, if you like, when three are reduced to two. Bring us up to date with whats happened so far. I5 us up to date with whats happened so far. Us up to date with whats happened so far. Is the Big Drama here happened so far. Is the Big Drama here at happened so far. Is the big| drama here at westminster today. The final stage of the tory Mps Involvement in this lengthy process. By The End of the day, we will know which two candidates will be sent forward to The Party membership, who will have the final say over who their next leader is, who will replace Rishi Sunak. We had a vote yesterday, when four became three, with Tom Tugendhat being knocked out, after only getting 20 votes. Today, his 20 supporters are up for grabs at least. It remains a fascinating and unpredictable content, as tory Leadership Races are invariably offered up yesterday, James Cleverly Leapfrogged Into First place in the ballot, and i think it looks pretty certain that he will be in the final two unless something extraordinary happens today. There seems to be a Real Battle On For Second place between Robertjenrick And Kemi badenoch. They both see themselves as standard bearers of The Party, making similar pitches in some way. Robert jenrick has lost some ground in the last weeks and i think he is probablyjittery at the last weeks and i think he is probably jittery at this stage, and i think nobody could have foreseen that a week or so ago. Kemi badenoch has some Passion Supporters among mps but also some pretty strong critics, so i think it will be interesting to see the final result. Im not going to protect it. There is going to be three more intense hours of Arm Twisting and controlling and promises have been made to tory mps. There might be tactical voting, all sorts of shenanigans, as some mps try to work out who they want to be the leader of The Party and who, which of the two they want to see put membership, and that is going to be fascinating what happens when we get the result at 3 30pm. I think the real fight is for the second Place Spot and, at the moment, the winner is on a knife edge. The last two then winner is on a knife edge. The last two then get winner is on a knife edge. The last two then get put to the wider party membership. We are not going to know who will be the next conservative leader until after this government but First Budget. Until after this government but First BudgetFirst Budget. There is disquiet and grumbling First Budget. There is disquiet and grumbling in First Budget. There is disquiet and grumbling in the and grumbling in the conservative party about how long this process has taken steps Rishi Sunak announced he was standing Down Injuly and nominations for thejob was standing Down Injuly and nominations for the job closed at The End ofjuly and there were then an initial couple of rounds of voting among mps, as they began to narrow down the field, then we had the conservative Party Conference last week, when the four many candidates made their pitches and ricocheted around the Conference Centre in birmingham, with their supporters trying to drum home their message. This is the centrepiece of that conference. On that day, it was widely thought that James Cleverly pulled off a surprise and stole the show, in his speech, and i think that has done an enormous amount to give him a boost in parliament and give him that Magic Ingredient in politics, momentum, as we head to the final stage of this part of the content and onto the membership. But now, after today, there will be another protracted stage to the content, as the two remaining candidates take their campaigns out to the grassroots. They are the people that tend to be a little bit older. A little bit more prosperous. They will decide who. I take this opportunity they will decide who. I take this opportunity to they will decide who. I take this opportunity to reiterate l this opportunity to reiterate that the hostages must be released. I reiterate our call for an immediate ceasefire in gaza and lebanon. Mr speaker, this week the government will deliver on our promise to the british people on the biggest upgrade to workers rights in a generation. The Employment Rate Bill will ensure employment pays, forge a new partnership with business, and reset industrial relations that have cost our economy so much in recent years
