Brexit Thread

On Thursday morning, the high court ruled that parliament – and not the prime minister by use of prerogative powers – would need to trigger Article 50 to start the UK’s exit from the European Union.

On Thursday evening, a portion of the British media exercised its own prerogative: to attack the judges behind the ruling.

Apart from the obvious issue of not respecting the highest court (disagreement obviously happens here as well, but never as strongly as in this case AFAIK), I would also like to ask why the judges look like sad christmas presents wearing carpets from the 70s on their heads?

I get that judges are meant to look ridiculous in every country, but those wigs really take the cake.
And no, that does not mean one shouldn't respect the ruling, it is merely about maybe updating the looks just a tad little bit once in a thousand years. I mean they probably also, hopefully, don't talk anymore like they did in the 1070s.
