I note there are at least 5 people who don't know I was a criminal law solicitor for 3 decades, have campaigned against cuts to Justice and legal aid and I'm childishly sarcastic 🙃 (which is what this emoji indicates)

The Government and HM Treasury do not care about the Justice system
They set an arbitrary budget and expect legal aid and the Justice system to cope

There is little to no chance of proper investment in Justice or legal aid.
If the annual budget was doubled that would help and would equate to about 4 weeks of the NHS budget.

The Government don't care and unfortunately all The Law Society does is engages with Government when in truth strike action led by and organised by The Law Society could generate the investment we need.
