Brace up, brave hearts and may I say -
1. congratulations to all the successful candidates and particularly those from solicitor backgrounds.
2. the current system assesses candidates in ways that are likely to facilitate elevation of QCs and recorders to the High Court bench
3. the system is changing. It is noted that it needs to change.
3. solicitors with relevant experience at the Law Society and in government departments are perhaps more likely to be able to demonstrate the competencies required than many very talented solicitors in private practice - who might want to think carefully about the reasons for that in describing their own competencies.
4. we solicitors should apply. We have masses to offer this branch of public service. Crack on, if you are truly interested and prepared to supply the real commitment and effort needed for a strong application. Good luck and be prepared for a tough competition. Can't find the button, but ending with line of encouraging emoji faces !
