A fine example

This is a fine example of an upstanding citizen. I bet he's not the only one either. Hick :unsure:

I thought it was part in the job description. You must have heard the expression "As drunk as a judge."

I have heard of "As drunk as a Lord" but never "a Judge". :D

Well that's rather crass, in my opinion.

Anyways, this is a good example of how acting stupid and making unethical decisions can cost you more than your self respect.

As quoted;

If convicted he could lose his £128,000-a-year job, and be disrobed by the Lord Chief Justice and Lord Chancellor.

Seems harsh, but I guess the man must learn some way.

Although I do wonder what reason he had for acting so irrational.

I think you might find that the two sayings you folk have in mind are:

1. As drunk as a Lord.

2. As sober as a Judge.

Either way, I'll bet a pound to a pinch of salt he just gets rapped knuckles and possibly a fine - 'cos it's not what you know but who you know that seems to count nowadays.

Good point.
