He was practising as a barrister and a part time circuit judge (the kind that jailed Julian) before his appointment to Solicitor General in 2014. Then Prisons Minister and now Lord Chancellor, succeeding Clarke, Grayling, Gove, Truss, Lidington, Gauke. That makes seven of them since 2010! So much for sticking to the job in hand and no wonder the prisons are in such a mess.
