Well well well, it seems the most intelligent man on the planet (yes I'm being sarcastic there, I haven't lost the plot) has decided Labour will remain in power for a record amount of time and is willing to put money on it. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15138333/Deputy-Prime-Minister-David-Lammy-bookies-money-Labour-power.htmlMore than 22 years?
So Lammy's latest stroke of genius, clear the backlog of cases by scrapping trial by jury for the majority of crimes. I'm sure that nothing can possibly go wrong with this, no nothing at all.. https://www.ft.com/content/a47a2cbd-fcbf-4363-a544-032964433965
This being the same Shammy Lammy that said this in 2020: 'Juries are a fundamental part of our democratic settlement. Criminal trials without juries are a bad idea'
