A probable product of plans to make changes to changes in jury tests to help deal with the backlog of criminal courts for the change in equity in the ability to affect the ability to affect the equity of competence (Tests suggested in free jury to save the criminal justice system from collapse, 9 July).
We can consider three effects of full effect. First, settling through jury represents the only chance for activists accused of putting their moral case in 12 in their peers, to seek oppressive criminal laws. History is full of examples of juries that conduct the country’s conscience role: In January 2022, Three active activities activists stopped at a time train at a slightest hour released in Central London.
A jury is also remarkable to determine the experiences of interesting workers facing police violence (As during the 1984-85 strike of miners), or Those who defend their communities against racist violence . Finally, removal of jury tests reduced “Komuntico space“In which activists can associate with people and share their concerns, say, climate danger. In the race to streamline the ways of justice.

It used to say that British Justice was the best in the world. If then that is the case, the Leson review of criminal courts shows that this is no longer the case. When I was a judge of the Court crown (2011-19), colleagues and barrisms of criminal courts need to prompt their ability to do their job. Cut into proper funds in cases, to maintain buildings (or their sales-off) and the limiting “days of sitting” gradually contributed to criminal states of court courts.
Sir Brian Leveson presented with a fait companion. The court system was broken and the prisons overflowing. It is not surprising that he or she should make recommendations not made in principle but purely as something better. They are very radical. Two things should happen to avoid a great injustice for a long time. First, the measures suggested, many of these should be legislated, should end if the backlog has been cleared. We can then argue if any of them should be made permanently.
Second, the judiciary should give a right voice. With the changing role of the Lord Chancellor at the Constitutional Reform Act 2005, there are successive politicians that is the main office of fiscal. We now live in consequences. The 2005 work should be modified to make a lawyer of the Lord and do their main duty to the welfare of the judicial system.

I am sitting in justice in peace. The magistrates are experts in temperature tests without jury. More than 80,000 trials were made by Judges in 2024 so they set the juries allowed in situations suggested by the Levevon report.
