Description
British criminal defence barristers protest outside the Royal Courts of Justice as they strike for a second time in as many weeks over pay and funding for legal aid. The lawyers want an immediate 15 percent hike in the payments they receive for state-funded legal aid work that ensures representation for defendants on low incomes. Britain's criminal justice system is massively under pressure due to years of cuts to legal aid rates and Covid backlogs which have delayed cases coming to court. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
