Editor pick of the day From Tom Harris MP’s blog… “I OVERHEARD a rather unkind reference to the denizens of the Upper House this evening: Labour Lord: “We’re voting on assisted dying tonight – putting old people out of their misery.” Labour MP: “Turkeys voting for Christmas, then?” In the end they didn’t. Vote for Christmas, I mean.” And this, from Scott Greenfield of Simple Justice, is PURE GOLD about Twitter… |
From Simon Myerson QC’s blog Pupillage and how to get it.
This is from Counsel magazine but Simon Myerson thinks thinks it deserves the widest possible circulation. I agree.
“Derek Wood QC is conducting the review of pupillage. He is having a drinks reception on Monday 13th July in Lincoln’s Inn at 530pm. If you are a pupil, or a recently completed pupil, you should have had an invitation. If not then get in touch with Andrea Clerk at the BSB – aclerk@barstandardsboard.org.uk – and go along.
The review is genuinely interested in your experiences and your thoughts. So make sure that those conducting it know what they are. And ask for an amnesty for pupil bloggers… “

Are you aware – talking of twitter – that twitter has censored Mrs Slocombe’s pussy? Now is the time for all good bloggers to come to the aid of this unfortunate feline!
