Huge congrats to @collingwooddurham.bsky.social alumnus Sir David Sproxton on his knighthood!

It is brilliant to speak at Legal Cheek ‘s awesome #LegalEdCon in London today. What stands out is that graduates NEED to have skills relating to responsible AI use. All universities should be ensuring their graduates understand AI and know how to use it responsibility.
Leadership is tested most when circumstances are difficult. Constant political psychodrama rarely serves the country well. The focus now should be on governing, delivery & rebuilding trust because division and instability only strengthen those looking to profit from discontent.
Great to be back in Westminster

Great fun to chair Legal Cheek's Legal Education Conference panel on "how law degrees are changing" with brilliant speakers Hannah Fernie-Clarke, Randhi Weerasekara, Christopher Howard FHEA and Dr Victoria Roper discussing impact of the SQE, how AI is changing legal education and practice & more!
En route to #Westminster
In two years, the Labour has slashed net migration by over half and more than 10 years of record highs under Tory government

Labour needs steadiness, not panic. A leadership contest now risks handing the initiative to Farage turning a difficult moment into a political crisis.
Priority should be to regroup, sharpen Labour’s message and focus relentlessly on delivery, public trust and national renewal.
