- Angry judge roasts Biglaw lawyers for their "collective debacle" filing a brief where "~9 of the 27 legal citations in the 10-page brief were incorrect in some way" due to Generative AI digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcont... Lawyers will pay $31k for their sloppiness 🤖😵
- I've posted here on the recent CA decision in Fasano v Reckitt Benckiser on agency relationships between parent and subsidiary group companies for the purpose of ss.109-110 EqA (as well as on a s.19 legitimate aim argument re LTIP provisions): www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...
- Isn’t the lesson from the last 50 years of British politics that the successful PMs are those who know what they believe in and convince the electorate of the merits of those beliefs, rather than the PMs who chase the electorate on the basis of what polls tell them might be popular on any given day?
- I wish Labour would realise that you can’t placate those on the far right of politics, and wish they would stop letting Reform move the Overton window on immigration. We all know how much foreign care workers enhance our care system. Why not have just vouch for them? www.bbc.com/news/article...
- The Supreme Court has refused permission to appeal in Boohene v Royal Parks, the indirect race discrimination case brought by contracted toilet & park cleaners who were not paid London Living Wage when Royal Parks employees were (the cleaners were more likely to be from ethnic minorities).
- One thing Blue Sky misses as against the other place is that lovely moment each year when the Bar glories in the delight of those who tweet about their pupillage offers and offer their condolence and support to those who’ve not been lucky on this occasion

Methuselah's multiplier would be massive!
- I feel that the Pope's brother may prove entertaining over the years ahead.
- Which is the worse act of professional misconduct: pleading fake cases or providing the court with a false account of how that came to pass?

- I'll defer to the expertise of the criminal barristers on here, including @barristersecret.bsky.social and @joannahs.bsky.social, but were I acting for someone accused of rape and sexual assault, I'd be advising my client to do up some buttons on his shirt.
- People of Greater Lincolnshire. People of Runcorn. Why would you do that to yourselves?
- Does anyone know where the Thursday Times Law section can now be found on the new version of the Times app? @legalhackette.bsky.social ?
- Done my democratic duty and voted. No other voters in the polling station or even in sight on leaving. I almost forgot my ID though - with the lack of messaging on it since the election I wonder how large a % will just forget it?
