Now that the long years of under-funding have caused so many family lawyers to leave the profession, the dedicated among those of us remaining are again at a premium.

Yet I see that Peter Watson-Lee has decided to support the campaign for a salaried family law scheme (see [2004] Gazette, 16 April, 1), whose inevitable result shall be a further reduction in salaries.

Is there a similar campaign I can join to reduce his?
