Who will have rights of audience? What will the fee scheme be? What will the legal aid qualifications be? Why are the professional bodies not shouting loudly to oppose this? If this comes in, it won’t be limited to offences with a 2 year max for long… thetimes.com/uk/law/article…

Disagree with Simon here Jury trials are essential for maintaining public trust in justice Last line of this piece is telling & alarming Radical reform is more likely because system is broken & we've no money, not necessarily because reform is any good theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

šŸ˜–šŸ¤ÆšŸ¤ÆšŸ¤ÆšŸ¤ÆšŸ˜– At least 2 large multi handed part heard murder trials unable to proceed at all today at the Old Bailey due to a 'shortage of prison/dock staff at court'... They can't even bring ANY Defendants up to court from the cells. Absolute fiasco by HMCTS/Serco.

Is Gov wifi down in every court in the country "for maintenance"? That'll be handy for all those trials they want to get through for the backlog, where everyone's case papers on the digital case files... šŸ™„

Was there any advance warning given by HMCTS that Gov wifi was going to be offline today? Why should counsel & solicitors be expected to rely on using their own phones' hotspots to access papers and keep cases moving? If maintenance was required why was this not done overnight?
