The Lord Chief Justice today gave tradition a cheeky slap on the bum when he took off his wig in court and exclaimed:
"Criminals come in all shapes and sizes so why discriminate against judges with hair? I have the deepest respect for crooks, reprobates and scoundrels and I can assure you this has nothing to do with hirsutism. "
The courtroom was stunned, mainly because no-one knew what he was talking about. After lunch, a spokesperson who looked a bit like a horse explained that they wanted to update the Judiciary and make judges look more in touch with the modern world.
"From now on judges with or without a full head of hair will be able, nay, encouraged to appear in court without headgear. One step at a time, nay, as judges without heads will still unfortunately be working from home. Please can I have some more hay?"
