Katie King and Tom Connelly reflect on CMS Cameron McKenna’s £8,000 gap year deal and the tabloids’ campaign against top judges

Meanwhile, Lord Neuberger and Lady Hale have come under fire in the run up to the hotly anticipated Brexit appeal hearing, scheduled to take place at the Supreme Court next month. But is the criticism, on this occasion, justified?
Due a technical hiccup, our video is split into two parts, both of which can be viewed below.
