Fishy tale

I was cheered to read the recent headline 'Fish tells governments to respect lawyers' opposition' (see [2002] Gazette, 25 April, 6).

For a moment, I thought we might have scrapped the Law Society and our other regulatory bodies and employed a small aquatic creature to look after our interests.

Imagine my disappointment to learn that it was just some bloke's name.
