£41.

That’s how much a couple with two children will need to be surviving on per day to qualify for full legal aid next year – which is 57% below the minimum income standard.

This is a finding from a recent report that we published today.

The 2023 Means Test Review promised to address this problem, but the previous government delayed changes until 2026.

In the King’s speech, the government pledged to reduce homelessness and violence against women and girls. These pledges cannot be fulfilled unless it introduces the changes that have already been agreed and budgeted for.

Action must be taken to improve access to justice for millions.

Unaccompanied children seeking asylum in Wales should be better supported, to ensure their rights are protected and best interests served.

This happens in Scotland, but not in Wales.

In Refugee Week 🧡, I called on the Welsh Government to act.

No over enthusiastic Eurovision tweets this year as I join the boycott.

Acting ethically is far more important than any competition.
