Mr David Lammy

Labour — Tottenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 December 2025

Debate

Criminal Court Reform

Contribution

The hon. Gentleman’s party did not come up with any solutions, and the backlog continued to rise. We commissioned an independent review, led by one of the country’s most eminent judges. Having reflected on that review, we are getting on with the business of recognising what he said: there is not a silver bullet, we have to do it all, and we are building on the reform that he asked us to do.
