The same old untruth about Europe trotted out .Overall spend is similar but it is difficult to compare common law and Inquisitorial systems .
The real statistic is that between 04/05 and 17/18 legal aid was cut by £800m while Government spend went up from £500 BILLION to £800BILLION .its NOT MONEY ITS POLITICS , THE CREATION OF A HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT FOR JUSTICE .The Ministers for Justice preside over a shrinking department and don't just fail to protect its budget but actively collaborate in its reduction.
Legal aid is 0.2% of spend .A tiny drop in the ocean .
