"Read some of his thoughts on how achieving gender equality in the legal workplace would stop men from applying - talk about old-school white, male, entitled privilege - women shoukd not be promoted because men won’t like it ! It’s no wonder that no progress is ever made, with men like him in positions of power and influence actively working to hold women back Shocking yet not surprising " . What's he said you disagree with. | |||

He didn't say anything about women not being promoted. Becoming a judge takes experience and knowledge. That takes time to acquire. Quite simply, it takes time for consequences of changes in the system to work through. You should also be in no doubt that the judiciary is in crisis. A Senior Judges takes a substantial pay cut from being a practising barrister. It is one of the few roles in society which people make a very real financial sacrifice to pursue. Recruitment is already a very significant problem regardless of gender or background. There is rather more beyond the headlines and sound bites. | |||

You are a very clever legal person but don't want to share the profound information that you have. Thanks for contributing  | |||

And for the record, nowhere have I said Lord Sumption is sexist. "Then what have you said or contributed? Anything at all? You started off by saying he was a twat. Very informative. Then you said he had archaic views on women but is apparently not sexist. Then you said that you know all about the law and the judiciary. You did not actually listen to the podcast but are upset that I'm calling you out on it. Don't post if you're not interested  | |||

"Why are you so cross/aggressive?" Cross, not aggressive. You didn't listen to the program did you? So why comment so negatively with zero unsupported opinion? Then describe sexism bit claim you weren't calling him sexist because you didn't use the specific word. Why did you even feel the need to post? | |||

"Do I need your approval/permission?" No. Why are you posting about something you haven't listened to though? Simple enough question. | |||
