  • Résumé

  • Should regional accents have legal protection in the UK? Mary Prior KC, chair of the Criminal Bar Association and one of Britain’s top criminal barristers, makes a compelling case in this episode of Doesn't Sound Right.

    Mary shares how her working-class roots in Stoke influenced her career and reflects on how she secured pupillage and succeeded at the Bar, where accents like hers were rare. She highlights why eloquence isn’t tied to a specific accent and offers invaluable tips for oral advocacy.

    Perfect for aspiring lawyers, practicing barristers, policymakers, and advocates for diversity and social mobility, this episode shines a spotlight on the evolving role of accents in the UK legal system.
