Leighton Smith Podcast #311 - November 19th 2025 - Lord David Wolfson
About this episode
David Wolfson (Lord Wolfson of Tredegar, KC) is one of the most sought-after commercial Silks at the Bar.
He served as Minister of Justice in the House of Lords between 2020 and 2022, and is now the shadow Attorney General in addition to his full time legal practice.
Wolfson is a man of principle, towering over so many who come up short in that department – especially in the political world.
He recounts the background of his resignation from the Boris Johnson Administration, which was a matter of personal conviction.
Also up for discussion was Wolfson’s thoughts on Donald Trump, education, the Middle East, mass migration, and the challenges facing England.
And as always we finish up in The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
