When Bullshitting Boris described them as “lefty lawyers” the Bar Council, who represents ALL Law firms said his words were “shocking and troubling” but hardly surprising coming from the man who rarely agrees that the law applies to himself.

The term “lefty lawyers” has been around for 5 years or so. Why didn’t the then government amend laws that these solicitors were using to “exploit”?

Because lawyers are not the problem but it’s easy to dump blame on them.

Lawyer's in parliament, creating laws that put money in their and their friends pockets. Shock horror
