> Mullings, your legal advisor, tells you it might not feel like it, but you're one of the lucky ones. At least because this was a housing case you had legal representation.

I hope Iain Duncan Smith and his colleagues are one day able to reflect on what they've created. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/legal-aid-cuts-benefits-cases-state-help-dla-esa-ministry-justice-disability-living-allowance-a8028936.html http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/legal-aid-cuts...
