A Shakespearean comedy of errors. Contrarian essays no 22
1. Anwar Ibrahim must be shaking in his LV loafers upon hearing the a congregation of lawyers will issue him a warning about judicial interference or about anything else bad attributable to anwars governance.
2. Such congregations will amount to nothing. Yes the lawyers will give their congregation a respectable name, walk for this or that .
3. A memorandum will probably be given to a doorman. Posted but not read by the actual addressee.
4. In the congregation, lawyers who have not seen each other for sometime will exchange gossips .
5. There will be whispers that judge X is bonking that nubile young lawyer Y. Wow!
6. It's a congregation of the legal bourgeoisie. The Hampstead and the limousine liberals.
7. How I wish , lawyers would group together and form their own political party, made up of entirely lawyers . Parti Pegu Demokratik Malaysia.
8. Then, let's see how many of them make to parliament.
9. There, they can argue until the cows come home about the source that gives rise to suspicions about judicial interference. That blasted 'upon advice by the PM '.
10. Once they get into parliament they can then persuade two thirds of MPs to alter the constitution. Have that blasted provision of 'upon the advice of the PM ' removed .
11. Upon removal of that blasted provision there will be no more allegations of executive interference in not only judicial appointments but also in other instances where such provision exists .
12. But then, deprivation of the luxury of the ability to bitch around the allegations of executive interference would make life boring, wouldn't it?
13. Life for women lawyers would be unbearable especially. Male lawyers can at least bitched about judicial sexual trysts.
14. Aiyya!
15. So whether lawyers walk for this or that or participate in the turun Anwar jamboree, the lawyers gathering will amount to nothing!
16. In fact lawyers' focus on the seriousness of any particular issue can dissipate once you put in a distracting agent.
17. For example, look at the recent lawyers' walk for judicial independence. The presence of the darling of reformati, appears to take the sting away from the solemness of the event.
18. When the axe enters the forest, the trees say of the axe, it's one of us for the handle is made of wood.
19. Some lawyers are so pleased and besotted with nurulizzah that they took pictures with her. Some probably got wet dreams later that night.
20. Lawyers can be politically naive too . The walk was weaponised by some political parties to dethrone Anwar.
21. By inference, if nurulizzah gave moral support to the walk, she's giving moral too to the opposition.
22. As in the walk, if lawyers participate in the turun Anwar thingy, the lawyers will serve as useful idiots.
23. Why don't these lawyers organized their own turun Anwar 24. ' concert'. See if people support them or spit and throw up at them.
25. People will know it's just a gathering of limousine and LV liberals and idealists who pretend to be self righteous.
26. By the way, nurulizzah committed a serious faux pas.
27. She said she's walking with the lawyers as a private citizen . Let's hope the people will retain her as a private citizen anywhere she contests. Apa macam?
28. That means the renegade 9 can also participate in the turun Anwar event as private citizens.
29. See whether the PKR SUA will take appropriate action against nurulizzah or the renegade 9. If she's not sleeping of course.
30. So, lawyers don't act as keeper of our conscience. We know you smile like a Cheshire cat, when we say, not cheese but say fees .
31. Don't be offended ya. Some lawyers are my good friends. 4 of siblings are lawyers as are 2 of my 'chewren". But I must be harsh on them sometimes to provide them a reality check .
32. I once met param cumaraswamy . He served me black coffee. Kasi garang he says. I now drink lots of coffee. No soogar
