Just saw @pritipatel's despicable diatribe against "lefty lawyers" and "human rights do-gooders", basically equating lawyers with human traffickers.

Hope @TheLawSociety and @thebarcouncil take this attack on lawyers and the rule of law seriously and strongly condemn it.

“Attempting to paint lawyers with the ‘leftie’ brush seeks to demonise the people helping constituents every day, without agenda. It is not the job of lawyers to limit Parliament’s laws in a way that Govt of the day finds most favourable to its political agenda": @thebarcouncil

“Representing asylum seekers does not make a lawyer a ‘lefty lawyer’. It simply makes them a lawyer. Attacks on lawyers for doing their job do our country no credit. Insulting at lawyers undermines rule of law & risks leading to abuse & attacks: @TheLawSociety's @LawSocPresident

And this from @pritipatel's speech too. Serious question, what does this mean? What is she referring to?

Who is she saying talks about human rights but doesn't seem to care about vulnerable?

Regardless of its truth, I just don't understand what she even means or is alluding to.
