No doubt quoting the constitution that ‘a judges remuneration can not be lowered while in office’ well the constitution doesn’t save them when they retire…hope enda kenny tells them to take a look around, their not special no matter how much they think it, in fact they are totally detached from the general population

awww the poor judges, struggling on a mere 2.3M untaxed (and the rest) pensions, how ever will they survive ? heck some of them may even have to drive last years mercedes, the same of it….

This thing with judges being exempt from the hardship being endured by most other professions and sectors of society must be stopped. Why these guys think they should somehow be exempt from cuts is mindboggling. And what’s even worse is kenny clearly didn’t tell them where to go either. Gobshites!

All the tax payers in Ireland are equal but some are less equal than others when it comes to paying tax.

Some of their judgments have a lot to be desired as well..

Well they could try the argument that their lenient sentencing for all the repeat offenders are saving us on prison costs…

Here we go again with litigation concerns and the constitution. It’s time for the constitution to be made fit for purpose.

What a farce. We are supposed to trust and respect these selfish, greedy men and women when they detach themselves from the rest of society. Some of them are extremely obese adding to the sense that they are obsessed with their own fat arses. Most of them are not fit to judge an egg and spoon race. Sadly though after the crack of the crozier has been eliminated the whack of the Gavel is still enough to send our politicians running for cover , so nothing will change.

Surely Chief Justice Murray you have got your dates mixed up it’s not April 1

judge Judy is only judge worth 2.3m !!

We pay tax so is all the judges too!

All men are equal, but it looks like some really think they ARE more equal than others. It’s about time that we realised that this kind of thinking is what caused our present economic predicament in the first place. Shame that a Judge, who technically should be on the moral high ground, wants to exempt himself from the reality that has been foisted upon the rest of us. I only hope that our new government tells him to lump it.

Uncle Bilbo? You?
