MITCHELL CLARKE

FREELANCE JOURNALIST

WHO I AM

I was born in Ladbroke Grove in 1982 and I’ve never left. My father was Jamaican, my mother from Grenada, both of them proud members of the Windrush generation. The values they taught me have shaped who I am and what I’m loyal to: my race, my class, my friends, my values. I tell the truth, like it is. In black and (occasionally) white.

WHAT I DO

NEWS

Hard-hitting fearless reporting, whoever, and whatever I’m covering.

FEATURES

Well-researched, in-depth and compelling stories born of a long and deep association with my neighbourhood and my community.

My work has appeared in the local and national press for 30 years, from theWest London Evening NewstoThe Daily Mirror,andThe Voiceto theNew Statesman.

The Lawyer Hot 100, 2022

Hugo Fraser KC

Appearing in this list for an unprecedented fourth time, Fraser continues to impress as one of the most charismatic and sought-after silks at the Bar, and shoo-in candidate to lead his Chambers the next time that slot becomes vacant. Considered by many to be one of the leading KCs of his generation, Fraser never shies away from demanding and high-profile cases, and excels at presenting fiendishly complex evidence in an effective and telling manner. Known not just for his Eton education but his taste in expensive suits, Fraser is gutsy, creative and unashamedly clever. Small wonder he stands head and shoulders above his peers.
