The coal face of legal aid is grim. The work is relentless. The pressure is often unbearable. I actually think it’s a dangerous environment; working to earn a living in an unsustainable system. As the system and the people start to buckle, alarm bells ring loud and clear.

This is the 3rd time I’m retweeting this but another thought; this puffed up little Lord is addressing someone who arrived on the Kindertransport - his response is vile at every possible level, including its insensitivity towards & disrespect for Lord Dubs, who is visibly shaken.

NY Times👇 (and rest of the world) "This mess was, of course, both predictable and predicted. That’s why I’ve been struck by the curious political taboo against discussing how badly Brexit has gone" Most UK media and politicians : "Oh no no no - No Brexit please, we're British"
