Insightful column in ⁦@lawsocgazette⁩ by ⁦@JoshuaRozenberg⁩ on malaise at ccrc. Commissioners in my time fought a long and exhausting battle against the erosion of their role and of independence. I hope Vera Baird can reclaim what was lost https://t.co/oCdTZjr2dB

Excellent interview by @verabaird with @BBCr4today at 2:10 https://t.co/dk1LaSHBbL about her new job as Interim Chair of @ccrcupdate: she has a big job ahead, but I remember her helping me on a capital case in the US, & I am sure if anyone is up to it she will be!
