I've been doing case reports for @IrishLegalNews for nearly 2 1/2 years. I'm curious: if you're a regular reader, what changes would you make to the reports? E.g. Would you add commentary? Is there an unreported area of law? Should I just quit altogether? Endless possibilities.

While undoubtedly sad occasions, funerals can sometimes be a chance to celebrate a long and eventful life. In my Grandma’s case, 101 years old and one of the last of her generation. Travel well and RIP. 😘
@MurphyNiallGLA @GlasgowHeritage @BookshopGlasgow As a youth I spent hours in John Smith’s mentally listing all the books that I would buy when I had an income. Now I have the income it’s no there! 😱
My Grandma died this morning. She was 101 years old. She led an extraordinary life and lived through some incredible times. RIP Nancy Ada Milner. ❤️
Our History 1955…this picture changed my life for the better. Mr King was the Head of Highbury County Grammar School, London. He saw this picture in our local Islington newspaper and effected my ‘transfer’ to his Grammar School. He said, “The school team needed a cricketer…”
One Humanity…nothing less: Met my school friend today at one of our infrequent meetings. I was the only black child in my school in London in 1955. As I walked about the play ground at break time, he approached me and asked, “What’s your name mate?”
@carlgardner @yuanyi_z @ScottishLegal If more than half the jury is not convinced that a defendant committed the crime, I’m not entirely sure why the state should get a second bite of the cherry? I’m sure there is a rationale.
@yuanyi_z @ScottishLegal I broadly agree with this, but doubt absolute rules are right. On remand in custody for instance, I think it depends why you were denied bail. You may for example have fled the country while under suspicion, and been extradited back. Or hid in an embassy.
@GlasgowAdvocate At least I pay for them 😂
