- David Lammy chairs first meeting of board set up to improve diversity among judiciary
David Lammy, England and Wales' first black lord chancellor, and Sue Carr, the lady chief justice, have established a new judicial and legal diversity board to accelerate recruitment of minority ethnic and working-class candidates into the judiciary. The board's formation follows criticism that Lammy's plan to reduce jury trials could increase racial and class bias in the legal system.
