Three Yorkshire MPs have been awarded more than £50,000 each in damages after suing a Yorkshire and Humber MEP.
Sir Kevin Barron, John Healey and Sarah Champion (pictured) sued Jane Collins, whose constituency covers north Lincolnshire, for libel and slander.
The case was sparked by a speech she gave at Ukip's conference in September 2014 - a month after a report found about 1,400 children in South Yorkshire had been abused between 1997 and 2013.
Mr Justice Warby said she had alleged that each of the MPs knew many of the details of the exploitation yet had deliberately chose not to intervene.

Lord Monson of Burton says that cannabis should be decriminalised after his son became addicted to "skunk" and killed himself.
Skunk is a particularly potent form of the drug and has been linked to an increased risk of inducing psychosis. Lord Monson says his son, Rupert Green, wouldn't have used it if cannabis was legal but stronger forms, like skunk, remained illegal.
I've been speaking to him and he says his family is still struggling to come to terms with the loss:
It's not the first time the family has suffered a tragedy, Lord Monson's eldest son Alexander died in police custody four years ago in Kenya.
