Simon Spence QC has also written an Opinion piece for The Guardian. He says:

“Anyone can find themselves wrongly accused of a crime. It is only right that they are properly represented in order to clear their name. Equally, if someone has committed a crime, it is only right that they are brought to justice. The current crisis is jeopardising the very system that the criminal bar is seeking to protect. This is why criminal barristers feel they have no other option but to strike.”
