The courts are seriously suffering because of this. If the Government thinks there's a saving, they've got a big surprise in for them with need for many more worn out DJs and the like.

Simple directions hearings that should take 5 minutes are taking up to an hour and a half - and LIPs and 'Mackenzie Friends' are massively and hopefully out of their depth.

We keep talking about a collapsing system of justice. No. It collapsed a while ago.

The position in family, civil and crime is absolutely untenable and my prediction is that the whole thing will come full circle - it just has to.
