[The CBA @TheCriminalBar]

71 court rooms shut today.

That’s 1 in 7 of all available
Crown Court rooms shut.

Government claims it has no choice but has to take “radical action” because of the backlog and so it will axe the right to trial by jury.

A good choice would be to pay to open more court rooms.

[Allan Compton KC @AllanCompton7]

Let’s think about this:
63 Crown Courts stood idle today
Say 250 working days a year
15,750 extra court days per year just by using empty courts
That’s 15% extra we could gain straight away- but no Lammy would rather cut juries to reduce the backlog by 20% 🙄 do the math David
