If anyone suggested that unqualified and uninsured people should be able to operate as dentists or doctors, they would (rightly) be ridiculed.

If people want to act as McKenzie Friends for free, that is fine. But charging for such services is not fine, unless you are subject to the same strictures as those who spent years obtaining their qualifications.

Paragraph 4.28 of the report says this:

"The key difference between McKenzie
Friends and lawyers is that the former
do not have automatic rights to conduct
litigation or have rights of audience."

Erm. no. The key difference between McKenzie Friends and lawyers is that McKenzie Friends are not lawyers.
