  • It’s not a question of people going without representation…there will always be a market. The question is what quality of representation the tax payer is prepared to pay for.
    The independent bar is saying we are the best at this and make sure we have the best and fairest system going. And they are right about that. But they also expect incomes that at least begin to approach what they might earn in the private sector.

    I’m just curious as to what level of sympathy the general public has for that. You won’t pay for every ill person to have a Harley street consultant on retainer would you?

  • Are you serious?

  • Your comparison to healthcare doesn't support your argument, as non-elective care in the NHS is expected to be as good or better in outcome than private care, and it very often is. All the non-urgent (or semi-urgent these days) stuff is where private care is far and away superior.
