Watching Brief
James Comyn
Round Hall,
1993
The cover is based on a Giles cartoon
published to raise funds for Private Eye's legal costs
in 1976. The cartoon, captioned "These things are sent
to try us" giving Giles' view of Appeal Judges, was
inspired by the searching of Private Eye's waste baskets
in connection with the case Goldsmith versus Private Eye.
The text contains three Giles cartoons.
'A plague on the high
price of beef, that's what I say.' 09.01.73
"Not only the Catering
Department of the Senior Service who are on the fiddle, eh, Admiral?"
16.11.72
"Oh boy! These two
are mine—one civil servant at 14.3%, and one judge at 18.6%
wage increase!"
16.05.82
