The Judiciary used to be competent and independent. Unfortunately I don't think either term can be applied to them today. Too many battles have been lost eg I still don't understand how the MOJ managed to steal the responsibility for setting civil costs from the Judiciary which allowed the MOJ to slash portal costs by 70%. As Andrew Bennington points out, the MOJ are now doing the same to criminal defence. Sad times indeed.
