Katie King and Tom Connelly reflect on the past few months of mental news stories

As summer comes to an end and autumn begins, it’s difficult not to look back on the last few months of legal news and think “what the hell just happened?”

A shock referendum result, a turbulent summer of politics, pay freezes, pay hikes, US firms thrashing the magic circle — sometimes fact really is stranger than fiction.

Here to bring some much-needed clarity to the situation are Legal Cheek‘s resident journos Tom Connelly and Katie King. Watch them reflect on the recent minefield of legal affairs news, offer their own opinions, and beg readers to send them presents.
