There is a lot, but I think the biggest injustice is the Innocence Tax. This means that if you're accused of a crime, the govtcan refuse you legal aid, force you to pay privately and then refuse to reimburse your costs when you are acquitted. #klssecret
It's a travesty. Half of all magistrates' courts have now been closed since 2010, meaning that in parts of the country defendants, victims and witnesses have to travel several hours to get to their nearest court. It is the disintegration of local justice.
Oh gosh. Loads. I could have wittered on for volumes. Youth Justice is a big issue. Young people are tried for incredibly serious offences in Youth Courts - much more serious than adults in magistrates' courts - and there are major problems with it.

Good evening students of @klshour! Thank you for having me on those shiny big screens. I'll be answering questions from 6pm. Just throw in the hashtag #KLSSecret and I'll do my best to offer whatever the opposite of wisdom is.
@klshour Righty. While I await live questions, I'll kick off by responding to some that have been submitted in advance. The first question is "How will Brexit affect family law?" Now, I'm going to disappoint you straight off, here... #KLSSecret
@klshour Not being a family law practitioner, I'm afraid I can't even attempt to make you any more enlightened. I haven't the foggiest. Sorry.

Right. Let's hope that I can do better with question 2.

"What do I need to do to become a commercial lawyer?"

Righty... #KLSSecret
