They quote the low earnings of a junior barrister in his first couple of years (who do the low cost legal aid stuff) but ignore the extortionate rip off fees they charge when they’ve got a little bit of experience after that.
just over a thousand a week isn’t much, it’s much more than i have but it seems a pittance compared with other middle class jobs when u consider how long they spend in university, then paying back loans and how mind numbingly difficult it is spending all your day in a room with no windows and can’t be anything other than formal and very serious listening to boring and depressing subjects. fuck that
What can you say, there are literally no words for these people, born with a silver spoon in their mouth, never lived like real working salt of the earth people.
