‘I was a litigator before becoming an MP. I started in 1978,’ says Andrew Dismore, the former Labour MP who heads the Access to Justice Action Group. ‘Back then, a lot of people didn’t have the opportunity to bring their cases, pure and simple.’ There was the phenomenon known as the MINELAs or ‘middle income not eligible for legal aid’. He recalls: ‘All those people missed out on access to justice unless they had insurance, a trade union or somebody else willing to act for them.’
