A very effective critique of Simon’s e mail on the face if it anonymous - but does anyone seriously think the Bar would want to amalgamate ? The Bar has a great brand – it commands a level of world-wide respect the solicitors profession no longer has, if it ever had. That is sad, but true. At a high- street level I have seen the profession I worked so hard to get into 40 years ago deteriorate to a level that I can’t recall the last time I told anyone I was a solicitor with any degree of pride. Standards have been allowed to deteriorate and the SRA with their talk of ‘service users’ and ‘outcome focus’ are a pack of jokers. Why on earth would the Bar ever agree to lose what they have? You can pull apart Simon’s post as much as you like – but unfortunately he is fundamentally right .
