I predict.. you'll sue a psychic

You think they would have seen it coming... but psychics have been seriously spooked by new laws to protect their clients.

They could face legal action under EU rules to crack down on dodgy spiritualists.

Mediums may now have to issue disclaimers such as "this is a scientific experiment, the results cannot be guaranteed" before making contact with the other side.

They have formed a union, the Spiritual Workers' Association, to guard against lawsuits. A spokesman said: "This is unfair on genuine spiritualists."

The 1951 Fraudulent Mediums Act is being replaced by rules to ban everything from bogus closing-down sales to prize-draw scams.

Last year £40million was spent on online, phone and TV psychic services.
