Episode notes

David Gauke, former Justice Secretary, Victoria Gethin, head of family law at Stephensons, Rob Preece from the Howard League for Penal Reform, and Richard Atkinson, vice president of the Law Society, join PoliticsHome’s Alain Tolhurst to discuss the crisis in the UK’s justice system, with huge backlogs in crown and civil courts, a chronic lack of lawyers and judges, along with overcrowded and under-staffed prisons.

Presented by Alain Tolhurst, produced by Nick Hilton for Podot, edited by Laura Silver
