They do know a Law degree is the only degree you can get without attending a university?

Mr Gandhi of the Middle Temple would not have been allowed into any Oxbridge colleges on account of not being an Anglican.

How do you get a law degree without going to uni?

Meh. The recruiter should have nuanced it but tbh in my experience US qualified partners love Oxbridge candidates. Apart from anything else it means they don’t have to work out what other universities there are and which are any good.

I certainly knew that 10+ years ago US firms loved Oxbridge, but I thought they'd got over that by now.

Is there any one of the Tory Brexiteers they could tempt away`/
