Supreme Court feels the strain as cases back up

Comment

typically dates are kept free so if anything does crop up there will be an expediated hearing, but it is fair to say the court is one judge short. It seems it has been that way since it first opened with Lord Saville tied up on the Bloody Sunday inquiry but still collecting his Supreme Court salary dispute only sitting a few days in a year. We don't need more judges in the SC, what we do need is judges who commit to hearing cases
