Over 120 UK #barristers defied bar rules by promising to not prosecute peaceful #climate protesters, or act for any companies pursuing #fossilfuel projects.
There is a lot of legalese involved, but thankfully reporter Damien Gayle makes it understandable.

@NadiaBernaz I can't imagine G. Nice would have said these things (or not in this way) so I put it on the journalist who has no idea and has simply not done the work. I think he does music journalism.
A related point is that the #Ukraine #tribunal and #barristers calling for the same are getting lots of attention while the #peace #settlement options discusses under the auspices of the #Lauterpacht Centre for #International #Law (seemingly led by Marc Weller) have not. Unfortunate.

The more the public know about the legal system, the better for the rule of law, says John Battle in a guest blog for the Bar Council. Read John's blog -

Bravo! More of non-jargon in #legal #law #LegalTech a VERY good idea. During #Covid I thought of offering a course teaching #lawyers #barristers #solicitors how to be effective vis a vis cross exam etc. when on #zoom cam because most are not so hot at it...๐ but then cases via zoom don't happen so often now...another inadvertent case of #PlannedObsolescence! #LawCourts #4Courts

Time to find out how many lawyers have made the jump. Lawyer love poems please.
The judge is in red,

Give me your heart,
or youโll force me to sue.
