Should you really be congratulating Lawrence Davies in Lawyer in the News for jumping on the political correctness bandwagon, championing the rights of a Mexican national with a sense-of-humour failure?

My own experience of the profession is that too many members take themselves too seriously.

Perhaps, sometimes, when approached by a client on a matter such as this, one should just use the well-worn phrase ‘get a life’.
