View full thread…honestly who wrote that? We’re about to write one of the most important legal documents of the century related to human rights and equality and we’re going to start by writing into the first article a word that has connotations of one gender. Appreciate it’s of its time but come on… Blog incoming

- @digitalfutures.bsky.social Also you may want to have a conversation with our CEO Stephen Moore of @mltdigital.bsky.social at some point uk.linkedin.com/in/stephenmlt - he literally named a legal lead generation company after that principle at one point. Good to connect on here. ^Gav
- The man in the automated message on the Manchester Civil Justice Centre phone number genuinely sounds unhinged. It only gets worse the longer you listen. Just wait for the bit about bailiffs. Who approved this???
- What is going on with this country’s justice system?! Thanks @digitalfutures.bsky.social for reposting! @teamlabouruk.bsky.social please let Sir Kier Starmer hear this and let’s sort it out please. Legal aid needs a serious boost at some point this year. Cc @joannahs.bsky.social #LawSky
- It’s really challenging with these four year terms. C.f. China’s 50+ year long term plans. Hopefully my upcoming book in my spare time for 2026 on Ward’s Law will help to make a dent at least on the legal side www.google.com/search?q=war... . Good to connect thank you @digitalfutures.bsky.social ^G
