Media caption<\/span>Monaco, models and money – who is retail mogul Sir Philip Green?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Sir Philip Green has said it was “outrageous” for Lord Hain to name him as the man who prevented the Telegraph publishing allegations of sexual and racial harassment.<\/p>\n

He said the Labour peer also failed to disclose his financial links to the law firm representing the newspaper. <\/p>\n

Sir Philip has denied the allegations and said he would lodge a formal complaint with the House of Lords. <\/p>\n

Lord Hain insisted naming the retail tycoon was in the public interest. <\/p>\n

He has also “categorically” denied that he was aware of law firm Gordon Dadd’s work with the Telegraph and said the firm played “absolutely no part” in his decision to name Sir Philip.<\/p>\n

In a statement to the BBC, Sir Philip said: “As many people have said, Lord Hain’s blatant disregard of a judgement made by three senior judges is outrageous.”<\/p>\n

Why is Sir Philip Green in the news?<\/h2>\n

The tycoon has been the centre of an eight-month investigation by the Daily Telegraph.<\/p>\n

The paper says that former employees of Sir Philip have accused him of sexual and racial harassment. <\/p>\n

But the Court of Appeal granted Sir Philip an injunction, preventing the paper from naming him.<\/p>\n
