People making out that magistrates’ courts are some newfangled thing invented by Labour. No one in the legal profession (least of all Starmer) would say magistrates courts are better than jury trials. They are however far quicker and cheaper to run. And given how stretched our budget is, a quick magistrates court session is far more practical than a forever delayed jury trial.
