Customer Reviews
Excellent podcast
I’m not even embarrassed to admit I find court rulings riveting, and am grateful that this podcast is here to explore the nuances and broader implications of key rulings by UKSC and other courts/tribunals. For students, this is like having a form tutor in your pocket, whittling down the key elements of the case to under 10mins, giving you the space to undertake more critical thinking and research in your own time. For casual listeners, it’s a fascinating insight into how each and every day the judicial / court system is shaping our life and society one ruling at a time, sometimes as a result of tragic events, and occasionally, because adversaries simply couldn’t settle their dispute out of court
