OK so that was a little confusing... Persons in England can be ordered to do/not do something anywhere in the world?
I take it that the worldwide court order is mostly limited to people and entities that are considered subject to English law so you shouldn't be able to go abroad, break the court order while there and then return to England without consequences.
The novel nature of the injunction granted in this case does not, as some media comments appear to suggest, relate to its “worldwide” nature – the English courts have always had “an unlimited jurisdiction” over persons in England and can order such a person in England to do something – or not to do something – anywhere in the world.
