You all know, or will have deduced, my motto in life - kick a Cocklecarrot a day to help you work hard and play - but beneath my dearly-held bigotry I am a fair man - who giggled? I do recognise that not all judges are Cocklecarrots, it just looks like that most of the time. However, today, just to start your weekend off on the right foot I bring you glad tidings, courtesy of the always excellent Anna Raccoon, of an emminently sensible judge who has just given some amoeba-brained officials of a local authority a right good kicking. Hence my desire for a shorthand phrase to describe the opposite of a Cocklecarrot. A non-Cocklecarrot? An un-Cocklecarrot? An anti-Cocklecarrot? None of them quite work but, alas, they are fairly rare so I don't suppose I will need to use it too often.
Anyway, pop over to Ms. Raccoon's site and read a real-life story as inspirational as the fictional 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'.
Well, I dunno. I'd like to help but I got out my dictionary and I still don't know what a cocklecarrot is.
Ergo, I am unable to assist in arriving at a suitable name for a non-what-he-said.
Make your own arrangements.

A quick note to say thanks for the link.
Unfortunately we finally got the detailed legals for this story sorted on a Friday afternoon when some legal bloggers may have gone home, so we'll be giving it a push first thing on Monday.
