A follow up; in the light of the recent cuts to legal aid, and other factors which make entry to the bar seemingly much more difficult than life as a trainee solicitor, would you still recommend a career as a barrister to a new law graduate?

Many thanks for doing this AMA, it's very interesting to hear what you have to say. My question is; at the bar, what is the general attitude towards yourself and other barristers who only or predominately defend? Is there any animosity between yourselves and others who only prosecute?
