This really irritates me. As the group suggests that "teaching, legal and medical professions have all suffered harm to their reputations in recent years", presumably medial and teaching professions will similarly be forced to work for free?

For that matter, traffic wardens, boiler repair persons, car mechanics, managing agents, and indeed politicians, don't have a great reputation either, so I trust we will see similar slavery, sorry, free labour, forced on them too?

Small firms are already struggling to stay in business due to high PI and regulatory costs and being undercut by cheap conveyancing or wills outfits and other business models, removal from panels, etc. We just don't need this, and some of us cannot manage this.
