What an appointment! Feel hopeful that things may actually change in the prison system!

[Krishnan Guru-Murthy @krishgm]

Watch this it’s fascinating - I asked James Timpson what he’d do about prisons and sentencing if he was in charge. He believes only a third of prisoners in jail should definitely be there. He’s now in charge of prisons (but not sentencing).

Mackintosh Law is the latest in a series of firms which are either closing their legal aid departments or reducing the amount of legal aid work they can do for clients. This is a stark illustration of the crisis facing legal aid firms. Read more:

An essential read! No one should be denied #legalaid on the basis of assets they can’t access. Further change is still needed.

England captain for five and a half years, Heather Knight played the most perfect test match innings you could wish to see, in her 9th test; 11 years after her first test match. Unpack that.

Finally got to graduate tonight, 7 months after I left university. Unbelievably, I have a first class law degree. 🎓✨🥂 I started my degree at 31, and it is without doubt the BEST thing I ever did. Don’t ever let anyone tell you you’re too old!

I followed this case in the High Court, obtained confidential documents, the consent of the teenager, the permission of the judge to quote them. ⁦@MeirionTweets⁩ ⁦@louisetickle⁩ ⁦@Familoo⁩ https://t.co/Ep6dU7hZjY

Access to Justice matters.

[Beck Fitzgerald Solicitors @BeckFitzgerald_]

In surveying 40 victim-survivors of economic abuse, Surviving Economic Abuse found that 32 women (80%) were unable to access legal aid. The #LegalAid means test is preventing domestic abuse victims from accessing legal aid just when they need it most.

@Hermesparcels How do we contact you? You were meant to collect a parcel from us on 8 September 2021 and it is still in our office a month later. We cannot get through on the phone - please help!

Women are being *killed* walking through the parks of London and the Government thought the answer was to install a bit more street lighting

Say her name #SabinaNessa and ask yourself where is the same outcry that there was for Sarah Everard?

[Helena Humphrey @bbc_helena]

Her name was #SabinaNessa. A brilliant young woman, with her whole life ahead of her, just like #SarahEverard. Please pay the same attention.
