Any competent government would have seen this problem hurtling towards them for months. And yet. Here we all are. Asking guilty offenders to queue nicely and wait a little longer for a prison bed to become available so that they can then be punished. Dismal. Utterly dismal.
Senior Presiding Judge, Edis LJ, has asked judges to adjourn, from next week, the sentencing of offenders who are on bail where custody is likely to be imposed. The prison estate is full.
The toughest Saturday court appearance going today - @2BedfordRow Pupils Mock Trial 2023 - Good luck to @Omar_Sabbagh97, @HudaSMMusa, and Jack Coyne!

Last week my trial was adjourned because there was no heating in the court. Today 2/4 courts at St Albans are not sitting due to lack of heating. @CEOofHMCTS and @DominicRaab need to get their house in order before they start criticising barristers for causing a backlog.
BREAKING NEWS: 🚨 THE LETTUCE HAS OFFICIALLY OUTLASTED LIZ TRUSS AND WON 🚨 ALL HAIL THE LETTUCE. 🥗🥗🥗
The next Lord Chancellor has the extraordinary opportunity to, in a matter of minutes, achieve more than @DominicRaab did during his ghastly tenure. How you ask? Pick up the 📞 & give @Kirsty_Brimelow @TheCriminalBar a call. We have always been willing to talk, Raab was not.
Today, criminal barristers begin indefinite strike action, in response to years of government cuts to legal aid and defunding of the criminal justice system. Here is a post I wrote giving the truth behind the government spin: thesecretbarrister.com/2022/06/27/the…
“Criminal barristers have stopped soldiering on through downtrodden criminal courts. They have stopped watching vulnerable people bounced into trials in 2024, hands clasped in prayer that there will be anyone left to prosecute and defend” @Kirsty_Brimelow theguardian.com/law/2022/sep/0…
‘These are the dying days of a wounded government and Raab has backed the wrong pony in the leadership race. He will be shown the exit soon.’ @Joanna__Hardy in this week’s diary. newstatesman.com/diary/2022/08/…
Something I’ve written for today’s @thetimes This government has broken the criminal justice system. Here are the first steps towards fixing it. thetimes.co.uk/article/the-se…
