McLibel Two win legal aid case _

[Eddie the Seagull]

I know this is pie in the sky and I'll admit I don't know much more than a little about how our legal system works.

Surely the only way to ensure everyone is able to get the same levels of legal representation is to nationalise the legal profession.

Everyone would be charged a set hourly rate for legal representation and would be allocated a solicitor. Those without the means to pay would be assessed for legal aid. Solicitors would be employees of the state.

I'm a complete spacker too when it comes down to legal nous, but that sounds like a f***ing good idea!

(Is 'spacker' libellous)
