A massive congratulations to Fiona Bawdon (above right), Chris Minnoch (above left), Matthew Howgate and everyone in the wonderful Legal Aid Lawyer of the Year Awards team for delivering yet another spectacular LALY awards night.
Working as a legal aid lawyer can sometimes be extremely challenging, but the LALYs always give Legal Aid lawyers a joyous and celebratory reminder about why we do this work and why it matters.
I am so proud to be a Friend of LALY this year, as I have been over many years.
Congratulations again to all the fantastic winners and finalists!!!
I’m really lucky to have such supportive barrister colleagues in Chambers. Now that Covid’s finally on the wane, I’m looking forward to seeing a lot more of them!
It was good to be invited back to the House of Commons, on Wednesday 17th May 2023, to again represent the Windrush Justice Clinic and speak on the panel of the Justice for the Windrush Generations bimonthly rally.
What is great about JfWG rallies is the cross-party support they attract. Wednesday’s event was attended by Marsha de Cordova MP and Richard Burgon MP for Labour and Duwayne Brooks for the Conservatives.
A big thank you again to Garrick Prayogg and Roland Houslin for the invitation to return.
It was good to be back on Times Radio, on Friday 28th April 2023, to discuss the continuing wave of industrial disputes dominating the UK, as well as to give my take on the significance of the 27th April 2023 High Court judgment, which curtailed the end date of the forthcoming strike by members of the Royal College of Nurses.
