Masonic Justices - The Wigged Mafia

There is no doubt that throughout Britain Freemasonry is very strong on 'the Bench' (the collective

term for magistrates and licensing justices). In 1973 a survey in one provincial city discovered

that twenty-nine out of forty-three magistrates were Masons or Rotarians. Some of the Masons' own

yearbooks reveal many brethren weith 'JP' after their names. Warwichshire boasts twenty-eight

JPs among Masons of provincial grand rank. Many more Masons in this heavily populated county

are JPs, but the yearbook has no space to list their worldly honours.
