A superb evening last night at the Women In Criminal Law 8th Annual Birthday Celebration. Sallie Bennett-Jenkins KC hosted our table(s) with members and guests for a really enjoyable night.
@2HareCourt are proud sponsors of @WomenInCrimLaw#WICL ⚖️

This should be seen by every new MP to understand what they do, & every new barrister to understand what we do.
🚨Backbench MPs🚨
Hello, you rascals. Off you pop to vote on restricting jury trials for thousands of folk. What a day, eh? Betcha don’t recall THAT in your manifesto. That’s because it wasn’t. HEY HO on we march, into the abyss.
We can see you on your phones, so, some tips👇🏼

Thought I was in the twilight zone this morning - standing in a massive queue to get into Thames Mags this AM with music blaring, a man dressed in a cat outfit, hoards of photographers and a premiership footballer.
