Having a voice is crucial - but on its own it’s not enough. Absolutely thrilling and necessary research from @sailwood and @popgoesthelegal & colleagues on the importance of listening #EqualsNow

[Cassandra Sharp @popgoesthelegal]

Absolutely!!!!! It always astounds me that employers don’t get this.

Interesting access to justice discussion for my students....

Interesting: the lawyer stipes in Adelaide now charge $110 to anyone who wants to lodge a disciplinary complaint against a lawyer: https://t.co/K6Y7h60bpq

Enjoying the plenary panel of the #BondCPLE CPLE/ALAA conference - do we have too much regulation of legal education? ...or not enough?... or is that the wrong question altogether? #BondCPLE

[Legal Futures @legalfutures]

An absolute corker of an introduction to a ruling here. First sentence is a beaut but superbly followed up by the rest of the paragraph and the next. A tip of the hat to Mr Justice Turner

Everyone deserves access to an affordable, quality education - and that shouldn’t depend on your bank balance. Tell Education Minister Dan Tehan - we need education for all, stop fee hikes! #educationforall #stopfeehikes #auspol https://t.co/7qvkpQBLPJ via @MegaphoneAU

A nicely written judgment on how to interpret a legislative section, relating to sexual harassment. Justice Perram appears unimpressed with some statutory interpretation skills - "Doing the best alchemically to make sense from the nonsensical…" [33]https://t.co/ODDANefeSi

Always found this an interesting exercise with my Ethics students... searching the Disciplinary Register in NSW... https://t.co/BWCatvrmrY

As campuses reopen, what's it like for first-year uni students after COVID crashed the party? https://t.co/X1XFrqQUSl

High Court re-iterates and re-emphasises the criminal and disciplinary prosecutor's duty of fairness, requiring all relevant evidence to be put, including a police interview with both inculpatory and exculpatory statements: https://t.co/WrajN63hjj

The game changer in the Heydon story is Kiefel. The CJ, by saying “I believe you” to the victims, absolutely defeats the enablers and apologists.
