A Legal Question

The attorney general has visted the Righteous State in order to discuss the means whereby Britain can be made more comfortable for foreign as well as domestic war criminals. Three weeks ago the Righteous State's former foreign minister, Tzipi Livni, suffered the indignity of having an arrest warrant issued against her at the request of lawyers acting for existential threats in Gaza; and last week a group of officers from the Righteous Army felt obliged to cancel a visit here because the British authorities could not guarantee that they wouldn't be arrested. Either this betokens a hitherto unprecedented separation of executive and judiciary in the New New Labour mind; or else the British authorities are still waiting for the Upper Miliband to find out what the Americans have to say about the matter.
