@DanNeidle I have seen this mentioned a couple of times in the winding up court. The debtor company says they have offered a bill of exchange and seeks dismissal of the petition. Of course the court doesn’t accept this and if I remember correctly each time the company was wound up.

It’s unfortunate that this statement from the Bar Council mentions a barrister’s duty to represent a client fearlessly but not a barrister’s duty to uphold the rule of law. The judge in this case had expressly directed that counsel were not to tell the jury that they were free to disregard his directions of law. The barrister allegedly - and at this stage this is just an allegation - did exactly what the judge had ruled that he must not do. All the Court of Appeal has done is to hold that the procedure the judge adopted to deal with this possible contempt was wrong. It has returned the matter to the judge for him to take forward under the correct procedure, if he sees fit. It is hardly appropriate for the Bar Council to be pronouncing at this stage that the matter should be at an end.

Lovely Saturday evening. 2019 Leoville Las Cases showing very well, sadly only a half bottle.

@LukeDyks That’s beautiful!

@hnjsamuels I do - I’ve had it for around 6 months now and I haven’t had any issues, the base model works perfectly well for me.

They are urging leading mobile phone providers and manufacturers to work with the Met, building on the successful precedent of car manufacturers who worked with police to substantially reduce the thefts of car radios and sat navs by integrating them into vehicle dashboards.

This opening paragraph has it all: Jesus and a donkey - not what one ordinarily expects in the Insolvency and Companies list.

@francesmccormac On the rucksack front this is excellent, the separate laptop slot is a great feature and the main body is spacious https://t.co/Z0X0dvh4DM

Of course, England won't question it but it is mighty frustrating.

[Harry B @MrHarryBithell]

At what point do England start to question Bairstow's place in the side? The argument for YJB is what he can do with the bat but when he's only got 78, 20 and 16 so far in the series (and has gifted his wicket to the Aussies) surely you question whether Foakes is a better option.

Not sure anyone has ever described a trip to the Senior Courts Costs Office as a 'delicious new chapter' but here were are.

The Lehman Trilogy was spectacular, would definitely recommend if you can still purchase tickets.

Snooker World Champs never fails to impress, they make it look so effortless and lull me into believing I could pull it off down my local.
