Editor,
SURELY, something is wrong with how the government relates to its senior legal profession. Two attorney generals and two judges ended their contracts with the government in highly controversial fashion. Every time the government's version differed from those who departed.
If our judgment is informed by statistics, we can conclude the government is telling us the truth, on average, half the time. But then again the Statistics Department is directly under the PM's office. Ok, ok, it is not exactly statistics but you know what I mean.
Ki'i 'ai peaa mu'a ha joint press conference with CJ Schuster when he eventually departs (a big if) ke ngali 'oku fai e mavae kava. Nounou pea taha pe e fakamatala. This shouldn't be too hard, is it?
