“Order a structural review.” · “Same Constitution. Different envelope.” · “The Independent Commission can count. Section 165 already did.”
A bench that never laughs is a bench that breaks. This strip is not a finding against the Independent Commission. It is a picture of the gap the Gazette still prints: a magistrate’s package of R1,209,303 against a High Court judge’s package of R2,194,917, after the same 4.1 percent. Pin it next to the tea-break cartoon from Issue 01 if you like. Send a photograph of the notice board to president@judicialalliance.org.
