I take the view that the judge was clearly correct to hold that ACCA professional qualifications are not eligible for points as "a UK recognised bachelor or postgraduate degree" under Table 10 or by virtue of the guidance.
I would therefore dismiss the appeals of Mr Syed and Mr Ahmed.
Unusually, the court has also received a document from non-parties, namely "Collective grounds of appeal" settled on behalf of, and signed by, a large number of applicants whose cases are similar or identical to those of Mr Syed and Mr Ahmed and have been stood out pending determination of the present appeals. That document has no formal status in the present appeals but it may be helpful to indicate that I can see nothing in it which adds materially to the submissions we have heard.

Just such a waste of time for so many people, for a case that I always thought was hopeless.
Hopefully people will accept this judgement and move on rather than pursuing ongoing appeals.
I thought this bit was interesting:
