“Hobsonian choice” indeed: we should be thankful for and remember such examples of independent and robust judges such Judge Obi telling it how it is. So much of the history here is deserving of condemnation. I am trying -and perhaps failing- to be so constantly writing of the value we must continue to place in a truly independent judiciary. Never, ever should we -especially now- take that irreducible and egalitarian asset for granted or allow whichever hue of an administration to get away with mere lip service to it.

Well said Malcolm. And thank you Joshua for reminding us of the plight of the Chagos islanders. Promotion due for Judge Obi?
