Counterfire’s Yonas Makoni speaks to Attiq Malik, a solicitor advocate with Liberty Law Solicitors about why criminal barristers are striking and why we should support them

The barristers will be out on strike again on Monday 4 – Wednesday 6 July. On Monday 4 July, get down to picket lines/rallies at 10am in the following places:

  • South Eastern Circuit – Central Criminal Court (Old Bailey)
  • Midland Circuit – Birmingham Crown Court
  • Northern Circuit – Manchester Crown Court
  • North Eastern Circuit – Leeds Crown Court
  • Western Circuit – Bristol Crown Court
  • Wales & Chester Circuit – Cardiff Crown Court

Before you go

More war, escalating authoritarianism, a deepening cost of living crisis – the left faces big challenges.

But resistance is also growing.

Counterfire has been at the heart of the mass movements against war, in solidarity with Palestine, and against austerity. Given the scale of the crisis, we urgently need to ramp up our operations. We need your help to raise £30,000 to make that  happen.

Please give generously – donate now.
