Changes at the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA)
Less than a week ago we started a new series about the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) - a series that we expect to go on for 1-2 months (see Part I and Part II) and we've meanwhile found out the hallmark of institutional failure: leadership shuffle.
As the top comment there says: "When regulation loses sight of inclusion, justice starts to fracture. Across the UK, disabled litigants in person continue to face disproportionate disadvantage when navigating major law firms and complex procedures. Too often, legal strategy substitutes for empathy — with process used to wear people down rather than uphold fairness. This isn’t just a question of ethics; it’s a question of public confidence in the rule of law. Leaders with deep regulatory experience — like those now at the SRA, FRC and FCA — understand that accountability and transparency are the foundations of trust. Their challenge is to ensure those values reach the front line of practice, where they matter most. No system can call itself fair if the vulnerable are silenced by its complexity."
For litigants in person, i.e. people who don't spend half a million pounds on a single case, the SRA is utterly useless [1, 2, 3].
We're going to show this to the public while not disclosing the identity of SRA staff.
SRA is basically a waste of money; it's failing at its duties and helps Americans, helps men who assault women etc. █
