Coming up on BBC Radio 4 Today #r4Today The CBA vice chair Kirsty Brimelow KC discussing why, over the past 5 years, a quarter of specialist criminal barristers have walked away, and why they need more to keep them prosecuting and defending for the public.

Proud & delighted to join my inspiring friend Karen Olsson-Francis for her Inaugural Lecture on her groundbreaking work in astrobiology. The Open University AstrobiologyOU #OUtalks

#TheRealMoFarah so extraordinarily brave in his willingness to show the burden that he has borne and continues to bear as an exploited child.

*IT IS HERE* It is with great excitement that we present to you Bridging the Bar The Academy. An unparalleled programme. The first of its kind. For all underrepresented groups at the Bar. 1/5

Joy

I feel strangely reluctant to start using KC. It’s the end of a reign that has spanned so much. I’m no Royalist but I have much respect for a dignified and dedicated life. And sadness for the loss of a female figurehead who showed such calm leadership.
