@LSAlawcentre Congrats Luisa! 🥳

Perhaps the most disturbing implicit judgement about Prince William's PR drive on homelessness is that tackling homelessness is somehow an unpolitical social phenomenon - and therefore an appropriate mission for a royal to embark on.

Wasting my evening trying to convince ChatGPT that the "ish date" is a real thing in Scottish housing law... genuinely concerned it doesn't know about it but at least my job is safe for now #AI

@Lawscot @lokiscottishrap @Daily_Record Legal aid is so important to help vulnerable people get the right help at the right time! The fees paid simply do not cover the work, especially for housing cases. Other lawyers are shocked at the work I have do for free or very low fees to protect my clients. #AccessToLegalAid

@Palestalemale1 @mikedailly @TCYJimB As a previous street lawyer there is lots in terms of the definition of homelessness, and maybe intentional/unintentional that could form a lesson, then a critical look at whether we have the balance right! That's how I'd approach it anyway, happy to discuss if that would help!

A blog on the @TCYoungLLP website about the changes to procedures in relation to eviction actions being introduced tomorrow in every sheriff court in Scotland

Really enjoyed chairing the discussion panel after the AGM today, lots of food for thought on lessons from covid on the justice system!

[Legal Services Agency @LSAlawcentre]

LSA's 29th #AGM - was great to see so many members join and a lot of familiar faces ❤️ #LSAlawcentre #membership #lawcentre #advice #tacklingunmetlegalneed

[Rona Macleod @RonaMacleod]

So glad to be attending this, as a law student I wasn't really aware of different career options I had so look forward to explaining what life as a solicitor in a law centre is like! Hoping to speak with the next generation of social justice lawyers!

[Legal Services Agency @LSAlawcentre]

We are really excited to be able to attend this event on 08 October 2021! We are looking forward to having the opportunity to speak to students about a career in a law centre working to advance social justice. Thanks @Lawscot for this opportunity!

It's like having a government that thinks road safety should be completely up to 'individual responsibility': no traffic lights, no highway code, no law about driving on the left, no crash barriers, ... Absolutely bonkers.

"Very often the law is on your side, but there's no remedy for you. And that's... a very basic affront to the fundamental principle of our democracy."

Rob Rinder says the majority of people in society have no access to justice on the latest episode of Ways to Change the World.
