Following the successful legal challenge to Brexit, Michael Gove has said that the public are “sick and tired” of so-called legal experts being high court judges.
“Say what you like about mob rule and lynchings…”, he remarked, “…but at least they were expeditious and gave the public what they wanted. Now we have these so-called experts claiming to have studied the law and thinking that they know better than us. Well they don’t.”
Gove went on to say that he would like to see judges and lawyers replaced by “posses of armed citizens” who would quickly enforce “public judgements based on public opinion” and has also mooted the return of a gallows to Tyburn where “justice can be seen to be done.”
“Just because these stuffed-shirts have studied the law for years and worked in the British legal system for decades does not give them the right to impose their expertise on the people of this country”, he added, wiping foam from his lips.
