Over 3,200 legal professionals including 22 retired judges and 303 KCs have written to the Prime Minister urging him not to reduce our jury trials. Barristers enable complainants/victims/survivors and defendants to give their evidence in court. Barristers want to lift the criminal justice system out of the crisis. Barristers have pioneered proposals to reduce delays and welcome their implementation. They need to happen urgently. Juries do not cause the unacceptable delays and are not the remedy to reduce delays. @thebarcouncil #JusticeNeedsJuries

AI has the potential to improve public services, create jobs and transform communities. And Barnsley is leading the way by becoming the UK’s first Tech Town.

This Christmas, every raised glass is a reminder: ceramics make it possible. From flute glasses to tree decorations to vital glass in hospitals, ceramic refractories power it all. Let’s celebrate UK-made ceramics and the innovators behind them. #Ceramics #BritishMade #Innovation

A classic case of “you’ll miss it once it’s gone”. Might never affect you personally, but if you were falsely accused you’d be exceptionally glad to have the right to a jury trial - insane that this is being pushed simply because of capacity issues.

🚨 NEW: The Government is set to scrap trial by jury for most cases Only murder, rape, manslaughter and a few public interest cases will go to a jury, while all other cases will be decided by a single judge [@thetimes]

The lady at the charity shop today told me that she wishes people would clear out their children's old toys in the lead up to Christmas rather than after because she always sees a number of parents in the days before Christmas looking for toys for their little ones who might be strapped for cash. She said there's very rarely anything in just before, but that they get inundated with toys in the days after. And it really made me think about it in a way I never would have before. If you know your child is going to get lots of presents from Father Christmas this year, by clearing out your cupboards a few days early, you could make another child's Christmas a lot more special too. Saw this & thought I'd repost.

1/7 Some important books have been published recently, by leading experts on the history of slavery. What they say is critical when weighing up Commonwealth reparations claims.

It’s also important to note that the National Trust’s management has no say in who is recommended for Council elections. That is done by elected members. Every year this wrong claim is printed, rebutted, repeated and printed again, by the same papers.

Lord Moore reports in the Spectator that the private company Restore Trust is this year making a new claim to cast doubt on National Trust democratic elections. Something to do with Canada & ballot flooding. National Trust elections are transparent, fair and overseen by Civica.
