  1. #Barristers on Ch4 was pretty oof. I know that viewers aren't privy to all evidence submitted in court, but the Black guy who was convicted and imprisoned clearly didn't do what he was accused of. Jury trials are the system we've got, but they're imperfect.

    I am so very sad to think that your #wonderful charity and its work must cease. Not only sad, but furious inside that because of the appalling# state of our #economy and its #political #managers, those with the greatest #needs are #denied, whilst those at the top are offered #tax cuts, ahead of an #election.

    As an exhausted #statutory #advocate im faced with the reality, almost daily, that I’m clearly the only person in the room who reads the instructions before putting the flat pack furniture together. Outcomes because of this, sadly way more devastating than a wonky wardrobe. Thank you for all you do.

  11. Over 120 UK #barristers defied bar rules by promising to not prosecute peaceful #climate protesters, or act for any companies pursuing #fossilfuel projects.

    There is a lot of legalese involved, but thankfully reporter Damien Gayle makes it understandable.

  13. 🌈 👩‍⚖️ 👨‍💼 ‍💼 🌈 Very pleased to see this in print! The outcome of research by Steven Vaughan, Ben Weil and I on the experiences of LGBT+/Queer barristers within the heteronormative and masculinist environment of the Bar of England and Wales. What seems to be at stake in being an 'out' professional, how that gets navigated, and what it might cost.
