Why is the UK government trying to scrap juries for some trials? | BBC Newscast
The reforms to ...the justice system include creating "swift courts" under the government's plan to tackle unprecedented delays in the court system. Serious offences including murder, robbery and rape will still go before a jury. Lammy has said the reforms were “bold” but “necessary”. Adam is joined by home and legal correspondent Dominic Casciani.
And, amidst all the noise around last week’s budget you may have missed the prime minister's suggestion that he will accept all the recomendations made in a report that criticised the UK’s nuclear power industry as expensive and “overly complex”.
The man who wrote it, John Fingleton, tells Adam about what he found and what he thinks it tells us about the UK’s approach to regulation.
