Best of luck with that one!
The term "lawyer" has no true meaning whatsoever, as in Alice "words mean what I say they mean"....
As for State control, there can be no better example than inviting the Lord Chancellor to attend a meeting of the Council which then supinely votes to destroy the profession. No formal control was needed.
The Law Society has "sat too long for any good you have done, in the name of God, go!" It would not be missed.
