It may be expensive, but the capital is the place to be for pupillage, says Field Court barrister Ayeesha Bhutta
Given the nature of this debate, I suppose I should start by declaring my regional allegiances. I was born in St Albans, grew up in Oxford, studied in York and Nottingham and have lived in London for the past five years. So, while I'm most definitely in the 'soft southerner' camp, I do at least understand that the world doesn't end at the Watford Gap.
As far as tenancy prospects go, I'll freely admit that the (anecdotal) evidence suggests sets outside London have only one pupil and that as long as they don't do anything spectacularly stupid tenancy is guaranteed.
