The Crown Court's backlog has doubled since 2019. That's why this Labour government is modernising our justice system with the Courts and Tribunals Bill. This will help victims access justice sooner.

The Tories left our criminal justice system in crisis. Labour will clear the backlog and give victims the justice they deserve.

I’ve just voted against the Courts and Tribunals Bill. True justice requires our cherished jury system to be retained.

This Armed Forces Bill puts our Armed Forces first – improving housing, strengthening the Armed Forces Covenant, supporting victims in the Service Justice System, and boosting our Reserves.

Today, I defended your right to a fair trial by voting against the government’s Courts and Tribunals Bill, which seeks to erode the right to a jury trial for a number of serious offences that carry sentences of up to three years. The Justice Secretary has put his fingers in his ears, despite the entire legal sector sounding the alarm, that scrapping jury trials will do absolutely nothing to bring down the spiralling court backlog and threatens a cornerstone of our justice system. I will now seek to amend the bill on the bill committee, which will take place after Easter.

In her evidence to the Public Bill Committee, our Chair Kirsty Brimelow KC said MPs should amend the Courts and Tribunals Bill to remove the sections that will curtail jury trials and instead create specialist courts to deal with sexual offences and domestic abuse cases. This approach is already working in Crown Courts such as Preston to bring down the waiting times for complainants, victims and defendants so imagine what could be done if this approach was introduced more widely. #JusticeNeedsJuries

The Labour Government is allowing two-tier justice - sectarian justice - into the British system. What Labour is doing to our country and society is outragous. Whatever happened to equality before the law Keir Starmer Shabana Mahmood MP ?

Courts Minister Sarah Sackman tells Channel 4 News that the government’s reforms to trials by jury will not result in a ‘dilution of justice in our system’. Under planned reforms, the government looks to limit jury trials for only the most serious crimes to help ease a backlog in the court system.

EXCLUSIVE I'm "ashamed" of Sir Keir Starmer, says rebel Labour MP - as the row over justice reforms escalates. Karl Turner tells me "I'm not going to be bullied" and attacks "pal" Starmer and called the justice secretary "lazy" as we visit one of London's busiest courts. This is the most cross I've ever seen a mainstream Labour MP against Starmer. But ministers are doubling down, not backing down, vowing to strip the right to a jury from those already facing trial to cut the backlog. We saw broken justice at Snarkesbrook Crown Court, talked to the government, rebels, judges and lawyers. Watch our deep dive Film by Joe Cook

Our justice system is the unseen pillar of our democracy. Without urgent reform and investment, victims will continue to wait years for justice. Backlogs could hit 100,000 cases - having a devastating impact on victims. We must act now.

President Trump reposted this. Read the caption very carefully. If your justice system has been corrupted, how do you bypass the corruption? Military tribunals. The only way is the military.
