The culmination of 40 years of campaigning on our clients’ behalf the @bloodinquiry published its #report today. #infectedbloodinquiry #inquiry #contaminatedblood

My letter to the Guardian responding to yesterday’s column by Simon Jenkins #publicinquiry #infectedblood https://t.co/idIpEWK6ku

@FredgoldMartin @yorkshirepost @bloodinquiry @LeedsNews Hi Martin, it was todays Yorkshire Post - so important that Gov just sort this out now, everyone has run out of patience and so many have run out of time.

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

My column in today’s @yorkshirepost calling on the Government to stop procrastinating and address proper compensation for victims per the recommendations of @bloodinquiry #infectedblood #compensation #publicinquiry

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

@trolliebobs It’s been a privilege and a pleasure working with all of our clients over the last few years, thank you

Please RT to support our campaign, raising awareness of undiagnosed bleeding disorders in women. 35,000 women in the UK struggle with an undiagnosed bleeding disorder. That’s why we’re #talkingred

When a government blames its woes on lawyers, seeks to dismantle the justice system and roll back judicial review, we can at least take some solace in the fact that they must be motivated by us doing our jobs well...

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

This is a remarkably stupid letter by @AthertonNWales.

Yes, lawyers are not accountable to the govt. We are independent and accountable to our regulators.

Yes, our duty is to our client. Not to pleasing stupid letter-writing MPs.

A #FakeLaw distortion of how our system works.

It isn’t just justice system workers- there is a perfect storm meaning that BAME communities are disproportionately affected - my intro article is https://t.co/KMVT1lwqhy

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

Precisely, they can’t. Everyday the British Government and particularly, @BorisJohnson are shamed by the contrast with the performance of @EmmanuelMacron and other #EU leaders who protected their people and economies

[Fred Sirieix @fredsirieix1]

How incredible that the whole of the #hospitality industry has not been told yet if they can open on the 4th July. How can anyone prepare for and run a business in these conditions? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

In my latest article, I draw together the enhanced danger of #COVID19 to #BAME communities with the #BlackLivesMatter movement - two entirely connected issues which must be examined by a #publicinquiry.

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

This is precisely what the legal profession can do to support the #BlackLivesMatter movement and we @milnerslaw would be similarly delighted to help where we can

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

And now we have an entire section for the #termsofreference into the inevitably forthcoming #publicinquiry into Gov's handling of #coronavirus / #COVID19

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

On 26 July 2019, we wrote an open letter to the PM concerning the levelling up of support payments for the infected and affected victims of #contaminatedblood across the UK. Here is @PennyMordaunt's response. #infectedbloodinquiry

In our second article, Sam Stein QC @NexusChambers and I attempt to explain why a #publicinquiry into #coronavirusuk is a legal inevitability. #echr #HumanRights #inquest #COVIDー19

@Quickieleaks @bloodinquiry Thanks Carol, both Sam and I are privileged to represent you.

[Ben Harrison @Beno_esq]

A #publicinquiry into Gov's response to #coronavirus seems inevitable now - Sam Stein QC @NexusChambers and I have looked at some of the areas of concern. #PPEshortage #vaccine #Testing #COVID19 #Plasma https://t.co/ZPRCLDiYKp

The madness of populism

[Jim Pickard 🐋 @PickardJE]

Brexit is set to have cost the UK more than £200 billion in lost economic growth by the end of this year — a figure that almost eclipses the total amount the UK has paid toward the European Union budget over the past 47 years of its ENTIRE MEMEBERSHIP
