Sarah Pochin

Reform UK — Runcorn and Helsby

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 December 2025

Debate

Criminal Court Reform

Contribution

Does the Secretary of State not agree that his policy of abolishing trial by jury in all but the most serious cases undermines the whole foundation of law and order in this country, and risks the further politicisation of our judicial system, with judges acting alone as the state and no longer being held to account by the people in the form of a jury?
