See if you can spot the interesting quirk at Talk TV’s British pub.

Just out to grab a bottle of drink of magnesia.

Just derived an ought from an is.

They should let the backs see the adverts during scrum time too.

Wild how inured you become to legal writing over the years.

Delighted to announce that I’ve taken up a new job.

I am now Crown Steward and Bailiff of the Chiltern Hundreds.

Can’t wait to see where this role takes me.

Just sticking my first tabs into my White Book.

Always a pleasure to visit the Middlesex Guildhall.

3rd thought; a barrister for every school in the UK

Further evidence, if we needed it, that the BSB needs a pun division.

2nd thought, more land law for the under-18s

1st thought, all civil procedure limitation periods set to six years

Might become a thought leader

Goes with the territory for a barista, doesn’t it?

It’s crazy how your law degree lets you answer questions for people.

Questions like ‘what is tort law anyway?’

and

‘Why is it called tort law?’

A powerfully unsympathetic group who have managed to power their way to far more attention than the cause deserves.

Like suing Greggs because you burned yourself without checking how hot the sausage roll was first.

Eighty courtrooms not in use today.

That ought to save a good amount of money 👍🏼

Is the small claims court in the room with us right now?

lol what next, Kate Hoey? I’d never believe it.

Normal books: p1 is ~2-3 pages into the book

White Book: let’s have 436 pages before p1

Can’t believe they shoved admiralty proceedings into Volume 2 of the White Book.

Should have been p1, Volume 1.

‘As has been made admirably clear by counsel…’

‘How the blazes are 10,000 loyal men to sign the covenant if you haven’t brought the pen, Smith?!’

Tim, I know the Fifth Court does well, but a legal comedy about Carson and Smith from two youngish upstarts might be about to unseat them.

NOT THAT BUCKET

FE Smith would set about you with an empty champagne bottle for that.

Also re the Bar and the exploits of certain barristers in the north. Though the BSB wouldn’t be having any of that today.

Harris’s Law states that Ireland provides the exception to every statement about British politics/law/policing etc

Everyone has the right to a jury trial, your home is your castle, etc etc etc

These violent delights have violent ends.

Clearing the path to disavow the EOG principle The Divisional Court (Males LJ, Bourne J) has dismissed a claim seeking to enforce unincorporated treaty obligations in strident terms. The judgment makes new points paving the way for the eventual…

Some very clear dicta on the non-justiciability of unincorporated international law.
