What motives do you think resulted in that comment being condemned and printed in the papers?

@NiceGerbil

What motives do you think resulted in that comment being condemned and printed in the papers?

Outrage and click bait.

It's a cheap tactic, it gets a name known. It plainly works.

You don't see it as a possibility at all.

That the Outrage was there from those closer to this area and that's why it got reported?

Or that the reporters thought it was newsworthy because what was said?

Judges choose their words carefully. They know they will be recorded and available for anyone to read (in most cases). They are the people with the job of applying justice in a fair and balanced way according to the law. They are the ultimate arbitrators and have a highly responsible and respected role.

Of course a judge making this statement is an outrage.

That's an unnuanced interpretation of my response.

I can see that, for whatever reason, you have great certainty in this matter so I must assume that you have access to information that has eluded me despite some careful research in this area.

I have access to what the judge said.

Knowing his words would be recorded. And that anything to do with sex is of great interest to the media. And that in this type of case there are certain orgs taking a big interest.

You seem to imagine there is any possible context that would make what he said fine and dandy.

There isn't. Nope.

It was a ridiculous and obviously highly inflammatory statement. And judges know that what they say and how they say it is very important.

Hit me with any nuance/ lack of clarity/ different ways to interpret that quote.

Nia have to justify spending money on a QC and a junior. They could have saved their money - the Court of Appeal would have come to the same conclusion.

7 QC (and their juniors) in that case - all to essentially argue over the meaning of the phrase "to cause". What a hoot !
