  • ILCR

We are delighted to announce that Aidan O’Neill KC has been appointed to an Honorary Professorship at St Andrews, attached to the ILCR. Aidan is one of the UK’s leading barristers, and one of the few ‘double silks’, i.e. he is KC both in Scotland and in England & Wales. He has acted in a large number of high-profile cases before the UK Supreme Court, perhaps most notably the Prorogation case in 2019 (Cherry v. Advocate General for Scotland/Miller v. Prime Minister)and Miller case in 2017 concerning Brexit (R (Miller) v Secretary of State). Aidan will also be joining the ILCR Steering Group.
