He'll also argue Giuffre's conduct was wrongful.
An example *could be: Andrew's legal team argues she miseld him.
@russellcurtis Indeed... in a former life we toyed with the idea of setting up the 21st Centuary Society to champion contemporary building in amongst the CA, CAAC, listed building proximity protections, etc. then protecting the gems in future years as C20th Soc. has been able to.
