  2. Haven't heard about "combined justice centres" in awhile. They were supposed to be the solution to court delays and holding suspects. Seems relevant with the "single justice procedure" being a government priority.

  3. 🧐

    "A #ReformUK mayoral candidate has described members of a #Jewish neighbourhood watch group as “cosplayers” and likened them to “#Islamists on horseback” in comments made after an attack on #ambulances run by a Jewish charity.

    #ChrisParry, who remains #Reform’s mayoral candidate for #Hampshire despite a previous controversy in which he said #DavidLammy should “go home” to the #Caribbean, made the comments on Monday about #Shomrim, a group of volunteers who safeguard communities including #Orthodox Jewish families.

    #Parry, a retired rear admiral, retweeted a post on X by #CatherineBlaiklock, a co-founder of the #Brexit party, hours after news of the attack on the ambulances in north #London emerged.

    Shomrim works alongside #Hatzola, the charity #ambulance service that was targeted by #arsonists early on Monday morning and provides #emergency #medical response and transportation to #hospitals for both Jewish and non-Jewish people."

  4. #TrialByJury is not an English invention. #JuryTrial is a medieval English adaptation from Nordic & classical precedents.

    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.

    #GeoffreyCox's contribution to the debate is one of the great #Commons speeches. A former #AttorneyGeneral, Cox's booming voice politely shreds the government case.

    The plans to limit jury trials in England and Wales
    The Law Show

    The courts system in England and Wales is in an unprecedented crisis. The backlog has reached 80,000 cases, and some defendants are being told they won't be able to have a criminal trial until 2030.

    The government has introduced the Courts and Tribunals Bill, which contains a raft of measures to tackle delays and bring down the backlog; but the Justice Secretary David Lammy has admitted that things are going to get even worse before they get better.

    The most controversial change is a plan to restrict the number of jury trials. The right to judgement by your peers has existed for more than 800 years, but for some offences, that's going to end.

    Defendants will lose the right to choose between a jury trial or a magistrate's hearing in so-called "either-way" offences.

    Magistrates will get increased sentencing powers - up from 12 months to 18 months.

    More serious criminal cases, with likely sentences of up to three years will now be heard by a single judge - and no jury.

    And only the most serious "indictable" offences, like murder, manslaughter and rape and any other offence with a sentence of longer than three years will be heard by a jury.

    But will the reforms make a difference?

  6. "Thousands of Lawyers"

    But Epstein Class Labour politicians know better than all those, and they're not raging narcissists at all....nope....

    Did anyone vote Labour for this to happen? Of course not.

  7. Fictional Creation of the Fictional Judge System in Real Life Judge Dredd

    The Judge System was created by David Lammy, then Secretary of State for Justice and Deputy Prime Minister of Tottenham street crime, between 2025 and 2031, to combat a rising tide of imaginary terrorism and to speed up the process of injustice. While there was heavy protest in all places where there are sane people over the idea of abandoning due process, the electorate was in favour and Dictator Keith Stalin (who supported Lammy's plan) was re-elected with a massive majority.

    ... yeah, right ... lol ...

    The original uniforms heavily resembled those of normal Bobbies, albeit with busbies and heavy boob armour, and they rode ChatGPT powered Segways. Following the Third World War of 2032 and discovering that Dictator Keith Stalin had stolen the election (... oh ... now that 2024 election makes sense), the Judges seized power.

    (((well, i never! such amazing predictive ability in the 2000AD team!)))
