Pupillage offer day tomorrow. Thinking of those for whom like myself have been here one time too many. Platitudes like ‘keep going’ ‘you’ll be better next year’ don’t quite provide the comfort that they would first-timers. Hopeful that we can finally move on from this mountain.
I’m glad we’re starting to have real conversations about health spending and overall government accountability. But this ₦68m figure is incorrect. It is a single line item, not the total health budget.
What does the 2026 Ekiti State draft budget actually say about Health spending? 🧵
Kirsty Brimelow KC @Kirsty_Brimelow begins her year-long term as Chair of the Bar Council today (1 January 2026), succeeding Barbara Mills KC. Kirsty practises in criminal, international and public law from Doughty Street Chambers. She is a former Chair of the Criminal Bar Association and was the first female Chair of the Bar Human Rights Committee.
Kirsty will set out her priorities as Chair of the Bar at her inaugural address later in January, but she takes up the position at a critical time for the justice sector. Kirsty will continue to lead the Bar Council’s opposition to government proposals to curtail jury trials in response to the Leveson review of criminal courts. She will also continue to advocate for greater investment across all jurisdictions, especially in criminal legal aid but without losing sight of need in family and civil courts. She will shine a spotlight on children in the justice system.

As you start today with all the motivation in the world, remember this: it won’t last.
Build a routine. Do it no matter what. When you really can’t, don’t quit or beat yourself up, just do it the next day. Show up, over and over.
It is the only thing that works.
We don’t support because it’s easy. We support because it’s Liverpool🔴
I have been in dressing rooms that felt this kind of pressure. You feel the noise, the doubt, the headlines. But you also feel the energy from those who support. That’s what carries a team through.
So yeah… things might not look great right now. But that’s exactly when a team needs its people the most.
