Crime and justice commentator Danny Shaw appears on the show to examine the political and legal fallout from the UK government’s spending review. With stretched police forces, an underfunded probation service, and mounting pressure on the courts and the prisons, how can Labour’s Manifesto commitment to “Take Back Our Streets” be fulfilled ? Ken and Tim then turn to the bulging Double Jeopardy postbag and tackle listeners’ questions and comments on the proposed reforms anticipated in the Leveson Review such as judge-only trials, as well as the implications of potential changes to abortion law in England Wales. What do these shifts mean for prosecutors, defendants, and the future of jury trials in Britain? And when are jurors entitled to follow their consciences rather than the evidence? From prisons and sentencing to digital forensics and judicial independence, this episode offers expert legal commentary on the most pressing political issues in Britain today set against the broader backdrop of UK politics.
