NO AI AT ALL PLEASE WILL BE CHECKING THROUGH DETECTION PLEASE PLEASE THANK YOU WILL LEAVE GOOD REVIEW

What, according to Lord Atkin's decision in Donoghue v Stevenson, is the 'neighbour principle'? On what grounds does he maintain that the relationship between the plaintiff and the defendant is sufficiently proximate such that the defendant is liable in this instance? Why, according to Chief Justice Cardozo's ruling in Palsgraf v Long Island Rail Road, are the actions of the defendant's guards not a wrong in respect of Mrs. Palsgraf, and why does he maintain that means they are not liable for the injuries she suffered? Why, according to Viscount Simonds ruling in Wagon Mound (no 1), is a defendant only to be held liable for damages that are reasonably foreseeable? Why were the damages suffered by the plaintiff not reasonably foreseeable in this instance?
