I have had a go at creating a Court of Protection starter pack off the back of a relatively quick search on here. I have undoubtedly missed a lot of people, so feel free to let me know if I have.

Pretty special time in Cardiff watching #Oasis last night. They were unbelievable.
A useful juxtaposition was the European press asking nuanced questions on the deal/detail.
Punching down & saying its a 'tough decision' is becoming tiresome. I expected & hoped for more from this gov.
PoA undoubtedly v useful - think caution re who you appoint cannot be overstated. As Court of Protection solicitor who works with panel deputies we see a large amount of cases where PoA goes wrong (financial abuse, etc). They're useful, but think v carefully re who the attorney will be.
I for one welcome the mysterious unknown object in space.
Always had a lot of time for him and his brother. Seem like good guys.

Agree re punditry.
Its the hope that kills you.

On the flip side, I would be ecstatic if Wales won a game this year.
As a suffering Welshman I do hope you're wrong! I'd like to think we'll surprise a few, but that's not based on much other than hope. Its there to be dashed.
I just know she's going to be a minor celebrity in Wales now. If she isn't turning on my village's Christmas lights I'll be dissapointed
I need to fully read over the new Bill, but having worked with people who lack capacity to manage finances and have a compensation award, paying more than one month upfront is sometimes most effective way to circumvent affordability criterias. How affordability is assessed needs thought.
Seems like a race to the bottom for the big social media sites.
This bit really got me. She'll be scoffing bara brith in the next episode.
Really insightful episode.
What would the point be in the ICC, then? If you're not party to it then what powers does it actually have over Israel etc? Arrest warrant which is not going to be enforced/is unenforceable seems to just weaken ICC standing in the circs.
