Replying to @BarristerSecret
Dear @SBarrettBar
Seema is my client. It adds insult to injury when you use her painful ordeal to try and score a moribund political point, predicated on incompetent error.

Hi @Independent would you mind editing or removing this Facebook post, it suggests I’m the person in question and frankly the comments are disgusting.
My mother still claims that she ran around the back of her panoramic school photo in the late 50s, and then had to spend the next two years trying to convince one teacher she was twins

As we embark on summer getaways, let us take a moment to remember and pay our respects to the over 10,000 individuals who bravely faced the D-Day landings on this day, June 6, 1944. Their sacrifice continues to shape our world. #DDay

Defendant turned up wearing a Hawaiian shirt with the collar splayed out over the lapels of his Prince of Wales check suit. The prosecutor, evidently awe struck, offered no evidence. He knows that it would be foolish bordering on blasphemy to put such a spirit on trial.

Great thread from Mary
Have noticed of late a sort of backlash vs ADHD. Not suggesting this report is part of that narrative- it appears to be done in good faith given the nature of possible prescriptions.

Raping and then strangling a woman to death is not a "sex accident".
We need to stop framing strangulation as a sexual practice desired by women, one which unfortunately often accidentally happens to leave them dead.

Raab tries to partially blame the pandemic and barristers’ strike for the court backlog at PMQs. His signature move.
Inconvenient reminder:
The National Audit Office found the Crown Court backlog grew a whopping 23% in the year *before* the pandemic (and prior to the strike).
To all those who have applied for pupillage this year, I wish you the very best of luck.
To all those about to sift the applications, I wish you wisdom and patience.
To those who did the sift for seven years, but are newly-excused this year, I say ‘Whoop, whoop!’

Leaving to one side any incumbent party’s desire not to cede advantage, what are the downsides to requiring a General Election when there is to be a change of Prime Minister?
