I would imagine it's more than a bunch of servicemen who are gobbling down a huge platter of Schadenfreude at this news...

"....I, and I am sure many other Solicitors up and down the country, am ashamed at the activities of these so-called 'Human Rights' lawyers, noses in the trough of the legal aid fund.

Yet how many silly awards do these folks get garlanded with by our leaders at 113...? ..."

This is the problem surely? The 'profession' had natural supervision under the Companies Act 1969 (also ditto other 'Professions' as well), when the numbers of partners were restricted to ten. Enough to get around a dining table once a week and ensure there was no skulduggery going on.

The larger the firm the more opportunities for misplaced construction and enthusiasm of what is a professional firm's behaviour and what is professional and ethical behaviour at that firm.

Its all culture stupid ..... and internal supervision.
