BBC NEWS | Politics | I will not quit as judge - Cherie
Quote:
Cherie Blair has insisted she will not resign as a judge after a senior barrister said publishing her memoirs had brought the law into disrepute.
Gerald Butler QC said her actions were "not appropriate" and "she should not continue to sit as a recorder".
But Mrs Blair, wife of former PM Tony Blair, told BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour she "certainly" would not go, as the law was "really important to my life". She also faces criticism for writing about the death of Dr David Kelly.
Dr Kelly's brother-in-law, Derek Vawdrey, told the Daily Mail this week Mrs Blair should be "ashamed of herself" for writing about the government scientist's suicide.
In the book, Mrs Blair describes her husband's distraught reaction to the news. Asked about Mr Vaudrey's comments, she said: "I'm sorry he feels like that but it's very much a part of the story."
Thankfully, it's now doubtful that the shameless cow will make full Judge.
