“Ceasefire provides no legal cover to commit atrocities against civilians.”
Some comments from myself and good people - Michael Lynk and @tobycadman here:
Gaza, Iran, Lebanon: If ceasefires are in place, why do strikes continue?https://t.co/izKkEgUBxf
Eid Mubarak to all my friends, family and colleagues celebrating on this joyous occasion wishing for peace, prosperity and lasting happiness amidst the tumultuous times in which we find ourselves
First gathering of @OutlineChambers after our inaugural Chambers’ Meeting following our launch. Great to bring everyone together in a hybrid meeting with half our members abroad. We will be holding an official launch party with an international law panel discussion in late June. Watch this space.
This is the first briefing on issues of international law and practice for @OutlineChambers. My next brief entitled "Closed Doors at The Hague: Is This Open Justice?" will be published next week.
Outline Chambers Briefings
@tobycadman on the international community’s “attention deficit disorder” — reacting to crises, but failing to resolve them.
“Attention is not strategy. Sympathy is not policy.”

Watching @RealBobMortimer and @PaulWhitehouse#GoneFishing and I've just realised it is the real life version of #Detectorists exchanging a metal detector for a fishing rod. It has to be one of the best and most heartwarming programmes on TV
Ten years ago, along with @almubernabeu, we established the Guernica 37 Group as a new initiative . We first established @G37Chambers in London, and then following on from that the @G37Centre, a not-for-profit in California, and #G37Bufete, in Madrid. Today, with a heart full of gratitude and nostalgia, I am announcing that I will be stepping down from the #G37Group, closing a chapter that has shaped my life in ways I could never have imagined. The friendships forged, victories won, and challenges faced have left a lasting imprint on me—memories I will forever cherish.
As I say farewell to a place that has been my home, I am filled with mixed emotions—pride for what we have accomplished, and a bittersweet sense of parting. Yet, I am also inspired by what comes next. @G37Chambers is being renamed as @OutlineChambers, that I will continue to lead with our great team in Temple, maintaining the values and lessons acquired at #Guernica37, and @almubernabeu is creating the #G37Centre (UK), a charitable foundation, and will continue to lead the @G37Centre in the US. I will remain forever committed and supportive of the #G37Group and the incredible work it has achieved and will go on to achieve in the future.
The road ahead is unknown, but I carry with me the spirit and support of everyone I have worked with. Whilst this will be a change it is a positive one.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement throughout this journey. As I move forward with @OutlineChambers, I look ahead with optimism to new opportunities, confident that the foundation we’ve built will continue to inspire progress and positive change with @OutlineChambers. Here’s to new chapters and continued collaboration in shaping a promising future.

Actually the service on the train is pretty poor too! I particularly like how the train staff come to your seat with a plastic container for rubbish and just stand there looking at you until clear your own table.
Travelling #Eurostar from #RotterdamCentraal is nothing short of shocking in terms of customer service. Being packed into a small waiting area with no refreshments then hoarded like sheep on to the platform. Travelling from St Pancras or Brussels is a completely different experience. I’ll be flying next time.
VISA APPROVED. See you on May 16th in England🏴
@Keir_Starmer@ShabanaMahmood@ukhomeoffice you’re only good at protecting the muslim rape gangs. Try to arrest me & see what happens.
England belongs to the English. Not the mohameds.

A wonderful evening at @frontlineclub remembering the legend that is #PaulConroy and listening to the wonderful stories from friends, family and all the people touched by his vibrant and infectious personality. I was fortunate to have known him just a little bit and to have been his lawyer through good and bad times. As was said by more than one person tonight, he remains ever present and we will always talk about him in the present. A life well lived and the legacy will live on in everyone he touched.
