Grayling's recent behaviour is a good argument for the Lord Chancellor being a distinguished lawyer. He does not appear to have the gravitas to fight for his department or to ensure the health of the legal sector and their clients. He seems to have volunteered a massive destruction of legal aid on the basis of right wing newspapers rather than actual evidence. If George Osborne calls for cuts he seems to ask merely how deep! The collapse of. Legal Aid firm today is no doubt partly because of government policy making the owner unable to face the grind of trying to make a living for his staff and himself.
