After High Court judges ruled in 2016 that parliamentary approval must be sought for activation of Artical 50, the leading headline on the Mail's front page read "Enemies of the people". The paper's front page and other coverage drew much criticism from the legal world, as well as from high-ranking politicians. On its website, the Mail described one of the judges as "openly gay." Critics accused the Mail of unnecessarily highlighting the judge's sexual orientation due to anti-gay motives. The Mail later removed the description. One law professor commented: "I have never seen this kind of invective against judges, either here or abroad, in the national media.

3)In 2014, after Emma Watson spoke at the launch of the United Nations HeForShe campaign, the Mail was criticized for focusing its coverage on Watson's dress and appearance, rather than the content of her speech, in which Watson complained how media had sexualised her in their coverage from when she was 14. The Mail was much criticised for running the front-page headline "Never mind Brexit, who won legs-it", accompanying a photograph of Theresa may meeting with Nicola Sturgeon in March 2017, running more than a page of coverage on the two leaders' appearance. Jeremy corbyn , the leader of the labour party , stated "It's 2017. This sexism must be consigned to history. Shame on the Daily Mail."
