Their legal system is rather famously aristocratic, snobby, and contemptuous of working people too. They are all the epitomy of the Old Boy Network, they follow the leader so they don’t get kicked out of the club too. So their choosing a magistrate to send people to prison for up to three years on their own accord is unthinkable, and unacceptable in this context.
Seriously it’s won’t end with 3 years either, they will continue to sabotage the workings of the courts, dragging out cases, then again say look accused rapists haven’t been tried after years of waiting, so clearly the only option is to cancel our freedoms and surrender it to the oligarchy. Same basic strategy of thatcherism and Reaganism, sabotaging something and using the excuse to privatize it or cut it further, saying public options don’t work when it worked until they made sure it didn’t.
Before long whole categories of crimes will be removed to magistrates, and I’m betting protesters now being charged with serious crimes for protests that are disfavored, seperate from the fake terror designations this happened before, people being charged with over ten years in prison, will be removed from jury trials if they get more acquittals.
They did get a bunch of acquittals, and the judges/legal system disallowed the defenses they were using in court, saying why they protested, ie climate protesters, environmental, which is the other force behind this other than Israel, it’s to protect oil and other polluters from protest and scrutiny.
So after they disallowed they got more convictions, and these buttoned up do gooder middle class britons have to throw themselves at the mercy of these judges that were chosen to have contempt for them, that would have them executed if they could, rather than being not guilty if the legal system wasn’t rigged for the prosecution.
This is a wonderful combination with the no jury trial thing.
“Suspicious internet activity” and then a judge throws you away for 6 months with zero effort.
Sounds like a great deterrent/ enforcement system to me.
