Very important consumer credit decision today; Smith v RBS; Supreme Court overturns decision of Court of Appeal on issue of limitation in consumer credit claims. SC decided that limitation period starts when credit relationship ends extending period possibly by many years.

@LucyRigby @UKLabour @NptonNLabour Saw your selection @LucyRigby on Labour List. Great stuff. Belweather consituency.

Exciting times at Hammersmith for commuters as new sleepers are laid. It doesn’t take much to make the day brighter!

Many thanks Blackstone Chambers for a night of revelry with Abbas Dodoo and One Drum Rhythms and Ghanaian dancing. No embarrassing dancing videos released unless . . .

@kirby_pj Quickly followed by a noggin of Gripe.

Anyone else remember rose hip syrup from their childhood?

At Edwin Coe LLP we challenged this compensation scheme as unfair. The claim was dismissed for jurisdiction but we were right the scheme is unfair and it's a shame it's taken this long to confirm that. postofficehorizoninquiry.org.uk/news/chairs-in…

As Express reports Edwin Coe are helping pensioners and DPA to challenge discrimination they suffer under the PPF legislation. Inflation means their pensions are reducing at a rate of 10% per annum. DPA at deprivedpensioners.org and Crowd Justice at crowdjustice.com/case/deprivedp…

We’ll it did rain, Surrey lost their way to Somerset who pulled off a spectacular catch to win cup. My dad would turn in his grave; cricket in pyjamas, white ball and a mass singalong in the Hollies. But heh ho a fabulous day for the modern game.

@pjm1kbw Let’s not have a FTA with our neighbours and biggest trading partners. Let’s go to the other side of the world to tie up with countries that have little trade with us. Makes entire sense.

What's in it for the UK? The short-term gains are marginal. Even with some changes to the trading arrangements with other countries, the gains from the expanded accord is expected to be fairly small - around 0.08% of GDP over 10 years. A Brexit triumph! 🙄 bbc.co.uk/news/explainer…

It’s T20 Finals day at Edgbaston. Brown Hats playing at 2.15. It always rains at Edgbaston when Surrey play there. It looks like that today. I’ll go of course but it’s not looking good.

heraldscotland.com/news/23647880.… Interesting decision of Outer House not to dismiss this action by Kenyan tea workers against Scottish farm owner and producer either on jurisdiction or fnc grounds. Subject to appeal the case continues in the Scottish courts.

supremecourt.uk/press-summary/… Judgment in SC on Philipp v Barclays. Appeal allowed: Quincecare obligations restricted to APPs by agent and not the victim. Closes the doors for victims opened by the Court of Appeal.

Tomorrow decision of Supreme Court in Phillip v Barclays Bank [2023] UKSC 25 push pull fraud claim. Will determine many elements of banks liability for frauds in which payments are made by innocent victims from bank accounts. Will SC agree with wider reading of liability by CA?
