Transcript:
I was one of those unlikely people that knew I wanted to study law several years before I went to Oxford. But, I equally clearly knew I didn’t want to be a lawyer. Many elements of the law fascinated but it was much more the human side than the technical side. So, I enjoyed criminal law and I enjoyed some of the elements about philosophy. Deep down I was a lousy lawyer and as I graduated, my tutor said, you might want to think about the prison service, basically whatever you do, any field but law. But did you find that background in law helpful for your career in international development? I did and I am still one of those strange people who read law reports sometimes, not the whole thing but the summaries and I am interested in those legal issues. I have never used my practical legal skills but I have used a lot of the disciplines that I gained and I think that helped me get a start in my career.
