TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY KATHERINE HADDON BRITAIN-LAW-COURT-POLITICS The Supreme Court is pictured in central London, on September 23, 2009. Judges will be sworn in Thursday October 1, 2009 at Britain's new Supreme Court, in a shake-up removing an ancient constitutional quirk and aimed at ushering in a fresh era of openness. The highest court in the land will now be located in a gothic courthouse just over the road from London's House of Lords, where its judges used to sit in their berobed finery.
