Are judges paid too much, or not enough?


This is what they earn;

District judges in the county courts and magistrates court-£102,921 pa.

Circuit judges in England and Wales- £128,296,

High Court judges, who now earn just over £172,000.

So should they suffer the pain with the rest of us, or be exempt because without a pay rise they will leave the bench, to go into private practice, dramatically lowering the standard of judges, which has grave consequences.

What do you think- Are judges paid too much, or not enough?
