Hi @MartinSLewis are you aware of mortgage lenders requesting EWS1 forms on buildings <18m & giving 0 valuations which is trapping thousands of people in flats with cladding? It’s an issue that would really benefit from your help🤞🏻

@PipSinks @Keir_Starmer I feel like I’m living in a parallel universe.

Somebody damages a statue: front page headlines; campaigns; MPs clamour to bring in new legislation; PM, Cabinet and Opposition all leap to defend Our Nation’s Heritage.

Justice Secretary suggests removing jury trial: tumbleweed.

No, @morton_wendy. It’s not “a fair point” for that idiot Hollobone to suggest that those “accused of the most heinous crimes” should not have access to legal representation. It’s a moronic point. And as a Justice Minister, you should have had the integrity to say that.

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

I understand that @RobertJenrick has been on Question Time tonight peddling the #FakeLaw myth that we spend more on legal aid than any other country.

This was a lie when his party said it in 2010. It remains a lie today. I can lend Robert a book explaining this if it helps.

Today especially I’ve learnt I don’t want to live in a country where there are 150 billionaires and people are still living on the streets.

a moment of silent remembrance, please, for the junior lawyers working on the Miller case, who expired of fright during Lord Pannick’s exchange with Lady Hale about the erroneous bundling of the documents

Have any of the Conservative leadership candidates said anything about how they would fix our crumbling criminal justice system? Has there been any acknowledgment of the ruin wreaked over the last decade? Or are they all pretending it’s not an issue?
