    Lawyers on strike - WTF?!

    BBC News - Lawyers staging second walk-out over legal aid cuts



    The CBA said many junior barristers face rates as low as £20 a day, once the hours of preparation, time in court and chambers' fees are factored in, as well as receiving no holiday pay, no pension provision and no sickness or maternity benefits.

      You can tell who's guilty just by looking at them. All they need is a criminal face recognition machine and they could get rid of most of this lot.
