We all desperately want to clear the courts backlog seeing victims withdraw from the criminal justice process. But the backlog was caused by chronic underfunding, not juries. Restricting jury trials would undermine our democracy and right to a fair trial, and may even be a false economy.

'If anyone has a sentimental attachment to juries, the cure is to go and see one in action.' Labour MP Stephen Pound defends plans to scrap thousands of jury trials to clear the backlog in pending cases, questioning whether the public can be trusted over judges.

Justice Secretary David Lammy is considering scrapping trial by juries - an ancient right that's said to date back to the Magna Carta more than 800 years ago. The proposals could help clear a massive 78,000 backlog of court cases, but would see jury trials only guaranteed for defendants facing rape, murder, manslaughter or other very serious charges. Katy Rickitt reports.

The right to a trial by jury is fundamental. There are a range of improvements put forward by legal professionals working in our courts to improve efficiency of our system without the need to restrict access to jury trial. That’s why I’ll vote against threat to jury trial today.

'When people are charged with speech crimes, they're much more likely to be acquited by juries than in a non-jury trial!' Toby Young of the Free Speech Union on how Labour's plan to limit jury trials could affect free speech in Britain.

The real cause of the courts backlog is years of underfunding, not the use of juries. The Bar Council and Criminal Bar Association have made this clear. I asked if the govt would publish the evidence base for the removal of many jury trials.

General Secretary of the Free Speech Union, Lord Young of Acton, asked the Justice Minister in the House of Lords to guarantee that at least people accused of speech crimes have a right to a jury trial, which is such an important bulwark of free speech. She declined. Trial by jury is a cornerstone of English liberty — especially free speech. David Lammy’s plans amount to the biggest assault on our liberty in 800 years. If the Government were serious about reducing delays and the court backlog, they’d stop creating so many new criminal offences -- 65 in the Crime and Courts Bill alone. If Lammy gets his way and jury trials are scrapped, you’re far more likely to be banged up for hurty words. We cannot let this happen.

🚨 This is the most AUTHORITARIAN move the government has made to date — and that’s a pretty high bar. David Lammy wants to scrap the right to trial by jury, a protection that dates back over 800 years to Magna Carta. Jury trials are a cornerstone of English liberty, and a crucial safeguard for free speech. Our research shows that defendants who justify their actions on free speech grounds are twice as likely to be acquitted in a crown court with a jury than in a magistrates’ court without one. If you care about the right to trial by jury — and you care about free speech — ✍️SIGN OUR PETITION

David Lammy wants to take away the right to a trial by jury. An ancient English right going back 800 years. And 100 Labour MPs are refusing to support him. Do you think this behaviour is good enough?

Labour don’t just want to scrap juries. They plan to allow magistrates to sentence people for up to two years without appeal. Last year, 5000 cases were appealed from mags courts, 40% were upheld. All under the guise of a "backlog". Yet people jailed daily for words online!

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.

#TrialByJury The leader of the North Eastern Circuit, Caroline Goodwin KC, has just given the Justice Minister a reality check on Labour’s plans to limit jury trials to deal with the court backlog. You don’t solve a backlog by removing one of the oldest safeguards of liberty in this country. Trial by jury is not an administrative inconvenience. It is a protection against the power of the state. Create the chaos to present the solution. Labour is exacerbating the issue and then presenting the solution, and the solution always seems to involve less liberty, more state power, and fewer protections for the individual. Limit jury trials, and what you move towards are Diplock-style courts, trials decided by a single judge without a jury. We have been down that road before, and it was never meant to be normal justice. This country fought for jury trials. They are not a bureaucratic problem to be managed away. Be very careful when governments start talking about “efficiency” in the justice system. Efficiency for the state often means fewer rights for the people.

When the jury restrictions were leaked last week. In summary, don’t rip up a constitutional arrangement when there is little evidence it will reduce the backlog. Juries are not to blame for the backlog. Cuts to funding of the criminal justice system is to blame. Thanks to Geeta Guru-murthy for her excellent questions. #jurytrials
