Day 273 - 03 Jul 96 - Page 21

     
     1   Q.   Why?
     2        A.  Because it would have surprised me because I knew you
     3        had been long enough in the group to know that we did not
     4        hand out fact sheets on demonstrations.
     5
     6   Q.   Okay.  Mr. Rampton....  Sorry?
     7        A.   I would have gone up to you and asked you why you were
     8        doing it.
     9
    10   Q.   Right.  Mr. Rampton said to you yesterday there was no
    11        dispute that by 1990 the group had other interests than
    12        McDonald's.  Did the group have other interests than
    13        McDonald's before 1990?
    14        A.   The group had other interests ever since I started
    15        going to it in 1986.
    16
    17   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I do not think that is disputed at all.
    18
    19   MS. STEEL:  It is the way Mr. Rampton tries to put things over.
    20
    MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Nothing Mr. Rampton has said in the whole of
    22        this trial has given me the impression that --
    23
    24   MS. STEEL:  He did say yesterday there was no dispute that by
    25        1990 the group had other interests.
    26
    27   MR. RAMPTON:  That is - what shall I say --
    28
    29   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I think you are attaching too much
    30        significance to it.
    31
    32   MR. RAMPTON:  What I actually put to the witness was that in
    33        1989 at least McDonald's was one of the main targets.
    34
    35   MS. STEEL:  Yes.  If you could get the private investigator's
    36        notes please.
    37        A.   Yes.
    38
    39   MR. MORRIS:  Sorry, I want to ask a question myself.  In the
    40        private investigator's notes, I will just read them out to
         you, but if anyone wants the reference it is Brian Bishop,
    42        24th May, page 2.  In the middle of the page it reads: --
    43
    44   MR. JUSTICE BELL:   Well, hold on.  You have the advantage that
    45        you have got the page before you tell anyone where you are.
    46
    47   MR. MORRIS:  Right.
    48
    49   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  So let us just find it.
    50
    51   MS. STEEL:  It is page 124.
    52
    53   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Thank you.  Yes?
    54
    55   MR. MORRIS:  In the middle of that page it is said that somebody
    56        telephoned Dave.  It is said that someone telephoned Dave,
    57        in brackets, Morris, question mark.   So they were not sure
    58        if it was me or not?
    59        A.   Yes.
