I'm not actually advocating any particular position on this - i'm just curious, as a criminal barrister, how much people think the value we bring to society is worth ;)
For me, using yout £100k figure, if all 16k barristers in the country were doing legal aid work and being paid £1.6bn of public money, that would be public money well spent.
£1.6bn = 5mi of HS2 track. I'm sure they could find it somewhere.
