Now he is #LordChancellor and Secretary of State for Injustice. He is preparing a huge assault on the right to #jurytrial, claiming implausibly that will […]

But the result is one of the greatest protections against injustice. Yet after hundreds of years, the Injustice Secretary #DavidLammy wants to severely restrict juries […]

Prosecutions and (too often falsely-accused) defendants both trying their best to see justice done?

The book I'm reading uses a strange quirk of English law to ensure there's a full jury in a criminal trial.
It's called "pray a tales" where random people in the street can be selected for jury service.
It seems to have been last used in 2016 […]
My disappointment with Starmer is near total. His failure on the most basic level of what would be expected from a progressive PM (securing our rights, not being racist, protecting the vulnerable), he's repeatedly failed, and in a way that is so aggressively boneheaded.

SB 1330 would require a jury if a judge slashes custody below 35%. No more quiet wipeouts. #DueProcess
Who decides your child’s future — one judge or a jury of your peers?
Arizona’s SB 1330 could change family court forever.

Scrapping jury trials for thousands of cases threatens fairness and public confidence in our justice system. Backlogs are real, but removing juries won’t fix under-funding and bias concerns, it undermines democracy and access to justice. #JusticeNotShortcuts #JuryTrial

Will limiting jury trials result in increased appeals, further congesting the courts ? #jurytrial #justice #courts #HMCTS
The restricting of the right to a #jurytrial in England and Wales is an enormously regressive move and another despicable act by the Labour government.

The jury remains central in the public imagination, but its practical role is marginal. The real threat to justice isn't the jury, it's the relentless prioritisation of efficiency over fairness and effectiveness in criminal justice policy.
#CriminalJustice #JuryTrial #LegalReform
But here's the tension: if most criminal convictions come from guilty pleas shaped by systemic pressures, does the jury still legitimise the system or is that legitimacy built on a myth?

I did some unconscious bias training a few years ago.
I discovered that I had a massive bias, almost a hatred, against rich and uber rich people.
I’m not sure I could be impartial and/or fair on a jury in a trial in which the accused is a rich or uber rich scumbag.

Professional portrait of Partner Raj Chada alongside quote - "Juries are part of our democratic settlement ; in fact no other part of the constitution is so open the public and ordinary people can participate in decisions of such importance It ensures that verdicts are fair and reflects community and society values"
Proposals to remove jury trials for most offences risks damaging the foundations of justice.
Juries are central to our democratic settlement and ensure decisions reflect society, not a narrow judiciary. Their role should be protected, not reduced.

Nigel Farage campaigned to scrap the ECHR.
Now he’s under scrutiny and suddenly panicking about losing jury trials.
Turns out when your freedom’s at risk, fair trials and checks on state power start to matter.
You can’t have it both ways.
