Govt must act. With every passing day, the prospects of a coherent system arising from the ashes become increasingly unrealistic. We need significant financial assistance put in place for all publicly funded lawyers; more courts & more judges trained. Now! https://t.co/3VON27QitR

@AvantiWestCoast Thanks

[James Mulholland KC @muljam23]

@AvantiWestCoast Yes.

[James Mulholland KC @muljam23]

@AvantiWestCoast I am having trouble making a delay repay claim on your site for the cancelled 16:52 from Stafford to London Euston, the 2nd time this has happened on consecutive days. The site tells me that ‘no journeys are found between 16:37 & 17:09’which is obvious as the train was cancelled

[Paddington @paddingtonbear]

Thank you Ma’am, for everything.

[Nick Barraclough @nmbarraclough]

Worth watching.
What people won't realise is the barristers will have submitted written arguments in respect of every point the judge addressed. Then they will have had a day in court making oral submissions. The total fee for that is £126.
Which is one reason we are striking.

[The CBA @TheCriminalBar]

Those attending gatherings outside of the Central Criminal Court, Birmingham Crown Court, Manchester Crown Court, Crown Square, Leeds Crown Court, Bristol Crown Court and Cardiff Crown Court on 27.06.2022 should attend in robes if possible. What is crucial is that you are there.

[James Mulholland KC @muljam23]

Let’s pray the Government listens. The return of a strengthened Courts’ Inspectorate is desperately needed for a dysfunctional justice system that continues to fail almost all those who come into contact with it.

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

If £64.95 per day is considered adequate payment for jurors deciding the most serious criminal cases in our justice system, it should be adequate for the politicians who set those rates.

“Lawyers across England and Wales have reported that trials are being delayed because barristers cannot be found to prosecute or defend and there are not enough recorders, or part-time judges, to hear cases” @thetimes
@TheCriminalBar gives evidence @MoJGovUK refuses to accept

[Sir Bob Neill KC (Hon) @neill_bob]

It wasn’t just a mistake. It was a bloody disgrace.

[Idle Courts @CourtsIdle]

We are very lucky as a profession, to have people able to produce a document such as this. In simple terms, “You are currently getting justice on the cheap, and as a society we are all being short-changed. If you want to avoid a catastrophe, think again.”
