Prioritize spending time on the activities that are highest in value and most energizing. https://t.co/76KvgawZdM

[Dom Holmes @DomHolmes147]

Gently encouraged by this (although I contrived to miss it when it was first published!). We need to do more to embrace more #flexibleworking, tackle geographical inequality and break down barriers to #socialmobility. Hopefully actions live up to words.

@daniel_barnett @didlawkaren @Jsj159 @cowhoneybourne @AudreySuffolk @legalwillyoung Well done to all involved - this has made my day.

[Dom Holmes @DomHolmes147]

Such an eloquent response to the recent unsubstantiated criticism aimed at Employment Judges and the Employment Tribunal system. Well done to everyone involved. #ukemplaw

@mayavision @HistoryExtra So interesting - thank you for taking the time to reply, Michael. I really enjoy your work.

[Dom Holmes @DomHolmes147]

Today I learnt from @historyextra that Spain halted its conquest of the Americas in 1550 to debate the new concept of universal human rights. As a lawyer who enjoys history, I am ashamed that I did not know this already... Thank you @mayavision for educating me!

[Michael Wood @MichaelWoodMV]

@DomHolmes147 @HistoryExtra You might be interested to know that before the Las Casas/Sepúlveda debate, Francisco de Vittoria - a lawyer and theologian had done a series of public lectures (1537-39) defending the rights of indigenous Americans - he is often seen as one of the fathers of international law.

You know your homeschooling skills still have a way to go, when (no. 653): your five year old daughter asks if she can watch SNOOKER instead

[Dom Holmes @DomHolmes147]

@ChrisMasonBBC And why not? Very educational!

Very well said. By all means make constructive suggestions as to how the employment tribunal system can be improved, but attacking employment judges who have been through a rigorous selection process is not the answer. #ukemplaw

@SBarrettBar I am more confused by the instruction to "Write the correct number sentences"...

Recommended homework for all UK employment lawyers trying to interpret #employer obligations towards employees who raise health and safety issues, regarding COVID risks in the workplace. It's fair to say that the law was not drafted with a pandemic in mind... #ukemplaw
