Gemma O’Doherty and John Waters will have to pay yet another legal bill following their latest failed attempt to bring a court challenge to the Covid-19 laws.

Today’s decision comes on top of a previous order for them to pay the other side’s fees for last year’s two-day hearing before the High Court.
