Summary: Listen to the show here. This week Lyndon and Kim discuss the contents of the Queen’s Speech and…slurry. Lyndon runs (very quickly) through the proposed offence of assisting a criminal organisation - is it necessary? is it covered by other offences? who is it designed to catch?

More criminal justice legislation; an improvement? or just the same old rubbish? Finally, with the magic of podcasting…there’s a pre-recorded discussion of a peculiar case involving a man who likes to masturbate whilst covered in slurry. I know what you’re thinking, but it is in fact interesting for other reasons… Links CYPA 1933 HC Briefing note Queen’s Speech announcements (Law Soc Gazette) Blog post on the slurry case Post on a dodgy solicitor who helped a criminal gang
