Those who bore the brunt of the pandemic also suffer disproportionately from a broken justice system, NLJ columnist Jon Robins writes in this week’s NLJ
Robins undertook a 12-month project travelling the country and speaking to people about their experiences of the justice system for a new book out this month.
In his column this week, he recalls his eventful journey. It includes meeting confused and under-informed tenants attending rent possession cases who were typically given five minutes each before the judge. He met people in dire straits through housing, employment and immigration problems struggling to cope in an underfunded justice system.
