Judges will always be particularly well paid and provided for, irrespective of the government of the days political persuasion. The reasoning being, that a well paid judge will not see corruption as an appealing alternative.....

And, no, I am not jealous - I cannot spend what I have anyway -
Make no mistake, Labour are THE BEST we have available - whatever happens, and they WILL stay in power for a decade more (so, we had better get used to it!)

I actually agree with you, Peter.
Even HM has to pay tax so why shouldn't judges?
The threat of a strike has lowered their standing to me. These poeple are the last bastion of good faith we have in our nation, and are supposed to be the fathers/mothers of our law.

What makes you think NL is a Labour government. Old Labour which was at least a decent thinking bunch if incompetent, allowed themselves to be well and truly conned by this lot. And the deputy PM sold his soul to the devil!

greatest leader of our time
You really have lost the plot, haven't you? On second thoughts, 'lost' infers you had 'it' in the first place, which is highly questionable.

We're looking into a financial black hole of £10Bn which Brown's created. He's going to have to tax his way out of that and Bliar's misguided actions in supporting Bush over the imaginary WMD have made the UK a far more dangerous place than it ever was before.
Go and and empty your bag, Pete - it's full of ****.
