I find this fascinatingI for one don't see why a judge would need CL. Most people wouldn't know who they are from a bar of soap so it's not like they need "protection" from the public prior to getting on a plane. QF giving them CL can only be seen as an attempt to curry favour. Therefore, it's very reasonable to be surprised and shocked to learn of their CL membership.
In my past life when I consulted a lot in Canberra (flying red roo as per company protocol) ~ you could not so much as provide a cupcake to a Commonwealth minion in a business meeting for fear of ‘conflict’ ‘ unfair advantage’. I did sometimes (as a total nobody) get to go into CL with pax far more important than me. What a surprise - all the senior heads mingling and happy and feasting away….. I couldn’t see the appeal really but the cognitive dissonance was laughable
